Welcome on my webpage

June 1st, 2024

I am a researcher in mathematics working for the CNRS, and I work at the Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse (France). Previously I used to work at the Laboratoire Paul Painlevé in Lille and then at the Laboratoire de Mathématiques Jean Leray in Nantes.

I have coordinated the ANR research projects INTOCS and NABUCO. I have also been a participant of the ANR project BoND.

On my webpage, you can find my resume and download my publications.

Editorial policy

I have signed the Cost of knowledge petition and thereby stopped submitting my work to all Elsevier and Springer journals. I have also stopped writing reports for these journals. I strongly support all colleagues who sign the petition and stop promoting these business practices which I find unfair.

I have unfortunately been unaware of these editorial issues for a long time. Some of my work has been published in Elsevier and Springer journals in the past. I have also written some reports for these journals. I can not rewrite the past, but starting from 2017 I have decided to stop participating in a system which I find is wrong. I might very well stop submitting my work and writing reports for other editors in the future.

The Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse is the home of the Annales de la Faculté des Sciences de Toulouse that is a completely free journal for both authors and readers. The Annales are part of the Centre Mersenne which edits free access journals and proceedings.

I strongly encourage all colleagues to submit their work for publication in the Annales de la Faculté des Sciences de Toulouse and other diamond open access journals. A partial list of such journals mau be found here, here or here.

Climate change

Due to climate change issues (about which I strongly recommend reading the 6th IPCC Synthesis Report), I have decided to limit my travel plans. I will no longer travel in France by plane and will also not travel by plane abroad for short stays (such as conferences). According to me, this is the minimal requirement for my individual professional behavior in order to meet the standards of the 2015 Paris agreement on climate change (and I very well know that this will be far from sufficient...).

NABUCO, research program granted by the French
Agence Nationale de la Recherche

January 1st, 2018

NABUCO is a research project granted by the French Agence Nationale de la Recherche for four years (January 1st 2018 - December 31st 2022). The acronym stands for NumericAl BoUndaries and COupling. The main scientific objectives of the project deal with numerical boundary conditions and coupling problems for hyperbolic and dispersive PDEs. The project is a continuation of some aspects of the former ANR project BoND (standing for Boundaries, Numerics, Dispersion).

See more information on the NABUCO project webpage.
