Francesco Lin
I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics of Columbia University.
My email addresses are flin-at-math-dot-columbia-dot-edu (research) and fl2550-at-columbia-dot-edu (teaching).
Here are my CV and MathGenealogy.
Research
I am interested in low-dimensional topology, global analysis, and their interactions. Most of my work involves the Seiberg-Witten equations and Floer homology; lately I have been thinking about the geometry of Riemann surfaces and hyperbolic three-manifolds. My research is partially supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and NSF grant DMS-2203498.
Preprints:
- Homology cobordism and the geometry of hyperbolic three-manifolds.
- Lectures on families of Dirac operators and applications, submitted (expository notes).
- Monopole Floer homology and invariant theta characteristics, submitted.
- Monopoles, twisted integral cohomology, and Hirsch algebras, with Mike Miller Eismeier, submitted.
- Closed geodesics and Frøyshov invariants of hyperbolic three-manifolds, with Michael Lipnowski, submitted.
Here are my list of publications and Mathscinet profile.
Seminars I co-organize:
