Teaching
In the fall of 2020 I'm teaching Linear algebra (1ma406/1ma901). Previously I've been involved in many of the first year courses in mathematics and some in mathematics education and computer science here at Linnaeus. However currently I'm primarily involved in the following courses
- Introduction to machine learning (Spring)
- Linear algebra (Fall).
I'm always interested in taking on students for degree projects. Please feel free to contact me if you have an idea to discuss.
Research
My primary research interest is dynamical systems, discrete mathematics and machine learning. In my thesis I study iterations of power series giving rise to discrete dynamical systems. The iterated functions are studied both from a dynamical perspective and from a number theoretic point of view. The problem have lead to both results in number theory, non-archimedean dynamics, and in complex dynamics. In machine learning my interest is broad, and currently I'm working in a project together with Björn Lindenberg and Karl-Olof Lindahl in reinforcement learning.
