About me

I am a researcher and teacher in mathematics with a four years starting grant from the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet).

My research is in Geometric Analysis, with emphasis on Mathematical General Relativity. I am particularly interested in:

  • Uniqueness of black holes
  • Stability of black holes
  • Strong cosmic censorship in cosmology
  • Stability under Ricci flow

Klaus Kröncke and I are organizing a weekly research seminar in the group of Differential Geometry and General Relativity at KTH.

Preprints:

  • Formation of quiescent big bang singularities [arXiv]
    (with Hans Oude Groeniger and Hans Ringström)
  • Stationarity and Fredholm theory in subextremal Kerr-de Sitter spacetimes [arXiv]

  • Non-degenerate Killing horizons in analytic vacuum spacetimes [arXiv]
    (with Klaus Kröncke)
  • L^p-stability and positive scalar curvature rigidity of Ricci-flat ALE manifolds [arXiv]
    (with Klaus Kröncke)
