Biography

Dimitri Stelio Wyss is an Assistant Professor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in the School of Basic Sciences, specifically in the Department of Mathematics. He specializes in algebraic arithmetic geometry, focusing on the interplay between geometric and arithmetic aspects through p-adic motivic integration and cohomology of algebraic varieties. His research explores applications of these ideas in moduli spaces, mirror symmetry, and the Langlands program. Dimitri completed his postdoctoral research at Sorbonne University and has supervised PhD students at EPFL. He teaches various mathematics courses including Algebra and Topology at the undergraduate and graduate levels, aiming to introduce students to fundamental structures and topological notions that are essential in pure mathematics.
