Tribute to Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat
In March 2026, I participated in a day honoring Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat taking place at Academie des Sciences in Paris and organized by Thibault Damour, Frank Merle and Laure Saint-Raymond. I gave a popular science presentation in front of high school students on the mathematics of general relativity. Below is the poster and a picture of the event!
Voyage au Coeur de l’Espace-Temps
During the second year of my PhD, I wrote a popularization book with Stéphane d’Ascoli on the theory of relativity. Intending a wide audience, this book has been published in March 2021 by First Editions. If you are interested in reading it, click on the cover below !
Our book is also available as an audio book at Audible, click here to listen to it.
Animath
The French non-profit Animath has organized events, tournaments and camps around mathematics for young students for the past twenty years. Here are the events are organized/participated to:
- In 2018 and 2019, alongside Elodie Maignant and Marc Abboud, I organized the Rendez-vous des Jeunes Mathématiciennes (RJM) at Ecole Normale Supérieure (Paris), where 25 students took part in various activities: research workshops, conferences, speedmeetings with woman mathematicians etc.
- In 2020, alongside Marc Abboud, I coached the winning team for the Tournoi Français des Jeunes Mathématiciens et Mathématiciennes (TFJM^2), a math tournament also organized by Animath.
Savoir Pour Tous
In 2017 I participated in the non-profit Savoir Pour Tous and gave a lecture to high school students on the subject of infinity in mathematics. In particular, I addressed the following question: are there more real numbers than integers?
Parimaths
During my years at Ecole Normale Supérieure, I had the chance to participate in the math club Parimaths. The goal of this club, which is organized by ENS graduate students, is to present undergraduate mathematical topics to motivated high school students. I wrote notes for some of the lectures I gave:
- Suites numériques et construction des réels
- La construction des nombres
- Le problème de Waring
- Les fractions continues
Media
Here are my various media appearances:
- Thanks to the publication of our book, Stéphane d’Ascoli and myself have been invited by Etienne Klein to his radio show La Conversation Scientifique broadcast by France Culture. Click here to listen to it!
- I have been interviewed by Ecole Polytechnique: Ecrire un livre de vulgarisation scientifique pendant sa thèse.
- You can check this short popular piece on black holes and their stability: Trous noirs : sont-ils stables ?
- From September 2022 to June 2023, I was part of the press review writing team of the website Images des mathématiques. You can read it here!
