Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Mathematics at Centre INRAE Occitanie-Montpellier
👤 About Me
Since September 2024, I am a postdoctoral researcher at Centre INRAE Occitanie-Montpellier (UMR MISTEA). I am working on the ANR Project: NOCIME with Alain Rapaport and Pierre-Alexandre Bliman. The main objective is to tackle new optimal control problems with non-standard cost functions motivated by epidemiology.
Before that, from September 2023 to August 2024, I was a Temporary Lecturer and Research Assistant (ATER) at Avignon Université.
From October 2020 to November 2023, I completed my PhD at Avignon Université under the supervision of Térence Bayen and Loïc Bourdin. My research focused on the derivation of necessary optimality conditions for hybrid optimal control problems and the development of adapted numerical schemes (manuscript available here).
Prior to that, I completed a Master's internship at the Laboratoire de Mathématiques Blaise Pascal under the supervision of Arnaud Münch. This work resulted in a mémoire, available here.
