Finn Wiersig

Since October 2020, I am a DPhil Mathematics student at Oxford University. As a member of the Algebra group, I am supervised by Prof. Konstantin Ardakov and Prof. Kobi Kremnitzer.

The best way to reach me is via my email address firstname dot lastname at maths.ox.ac.uk. You can also use the contact form on my profile at the website of the mathematical institute.

I am on the job market this year. Here is my CV.


Research

I am interested in p-adic geometric representation theory and p-adic Hodge theory.

In my bachelor thesis, I carried out some research in combinatorial commutative algebra.

In order to cut down our CO2 emmisions, Arun Soor, James Taylor, James Timmins, and I traveled to a conference in Stockholm by train, rather than to fly. You can read more about our journey here.
