Teaching (current):
Integrable systems and symplectic topology, Spring semester 2026, ETH Zürich
3h/week lecture for MSc and PhD students about: Integrable Hamiltonian systems, background from symplectic geometry, Arnold–Liouville theorem, classification of Lagrangian submersions, existence of and obstructions to global action-angle coordinates à la Duistermaat,… If time permits I’ll go into details on singularities of integrable systems, toric and almost toric geometry and their applications to symplectic topology: construction of exotic Lagrangian tori, symplectic embeddings, Lagrangian packing, etc.
Teaching (past):
I have a lot of experience as teaching assistant and substitute teacher at UniNe and UniFr, see my CV
