About myself
I am a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Innsbruck working in the research group of Stochastics.
Research
My major interests are random walks on groups or other structures and their boundaries. Boundaries can be understood as a way of compactifying the random walks. A very powerful object in this category is the so-called Furstenberg Poisson boundary, which builds bridges between several areas of mathematics, in particular Group Theory, Probability Theory, Ergodic Theory, Dynamics and Operator Algebra Theory. One of the main tools to understand these boundaries is Entropy. In a broader frame, I investigate stationary ergodic measure spaces (non-singular actions). Boundaries are one instance of such spaces.
