ℹ️ About Me
Ph.D. Candidate in Control, Stability, and Stabilization Theory
I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. under the joint supervision of Antoine Chaillet (L2S, Paris-Saclay University) and Amaury Hayat (CERMICS, École nationale des ponts et chaussées), since September 2022.
My research focuses on control theory, especially the stability and stabilization of finite and infinite-dimensional systems, including time-delay systems and partial differential equations (PDEs).
