My name is Konstantinos Tsouvalas and I have been a postdoc at MPI MiS and member of Anna Wienhard's Research Group since September 2023.
Prior to coming to Leipzig, from 2021-2023 I was a CNRS postdoc at I.H.E.S, where my mentor was Fanny Kassel. I received my Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Michigan Ann Arbor in 2021 under the supervision of Richard Canary.
My research lies at the interface of the areas of discrete subgroups of Lie groups and geometric group theory. I am interested in groups admitting Anosov representations, which is a class of discrete hyperbolic subgroups of matrix groups with special dynamical properties. In collaborative work, I have also focused on constructions of pathological examples of finitely generated groups with restricted discreteness and linearity properties.
