Luca Nenna

Maître de conférences HDR

Université Paris-Saclay

Welcome

Hello! Welcome to my website! I am a maître de conférences in applied mathematics (:= associate professor) in the department of Mathematics at Paris-Saclay University. I am the P.I. of the ANR GOTA and a member of the Inria-Saclay team ParMa.

I defended my HdR (French habilitation) on the 6th March 2024. You can find here the manuscript.

Before that, I was a post-doc under the supervision of Mathieu Lewin.

In December 2016 I completed my Ph.D. under the supervision of Jean-David Benamou and Guillaume Carlier.

$\bullet$ My research interests lie at the intersection of Optimal Transport, Mathematical Physics, Mathematical Economics and Numerical Optimization.

$\bullet$ I co-organise a monthly seminar on Optimal Transport, PDE and Machine Learning at LMO.

$\bullet$ News: I have been awarded a Frontiers of Science Award.
