Andrea Ottolini
I am a Postdoc in the Math Department at the University of Washington, Seattle.
I graduated from Stanford, where I was fortunate to be advised by Persi Diaconis.
Before that, I obtained a Master at S.I.S.S.A. under the supervision of Alessandro Michelangeli.
You can find my curriculum here, and reach me by email at [lastname]@uw.edu
My current interests are probability theory, optimal transport and mathematical physics.
Teaching
Spring 2024: Math 209 (Linear Analysis), Math 395 (Probability II).
