Research interests
I am mainly interested by 3-dimensional topology and knot theory.
Here are a very introductory presentation of part of my work Quelques présentations des variétés de dimension 3 (in French) and a less introductory survey of my first results On the Casson invariant.
I currently work on knot and 3-manifold invariants, which count graph configurations in 3-manifolds, following Witten's study of the pertubative expansion of Chern-Simons theory, and a topological approach due to Kontsevich. These invariants provide universal finite type invariants. I wrote a book about them.


I have committed to limiting my air travel by signing this manifesto.
