He participated in the 2016 workshop "Tensors: Algebra meets Numerics" and was listed among the Nonlinear Algebra People from 2017 to 2022. His academic foundation includes a diploma thesis supervised by Francesco Gherardelli, doctoral research under Vincenzo Ancona, and formative periods as a junior visitor at the University of Bayreuth with Michael Schneider, focusing on vector bundles of small rank. He began his professorial career in L'Aquila, where he pioneered Computational Algebraic Geometry courses against the backdrop of Gran Sasso mountains. Ottaviani's research bridges classical algebraic geometry (including derived categories) with applied domains like tensor spaces and quantum information. He actively investigates matrix multiplication complexity while promoting "mathematics for teaching" pedagogy. His work exemplifies cross-disciplinary synthesis, as seen in his undergraduate teaching example involving polynomial root dynamics using Macaulay2. Outside academia, he combines passions for bicycle riding, wine tasting (noting the practical challenges of merging these hobbies), and popular astronomy—recommending M81/M82 galaxy observation for "zen relaxation."
