Bachelor and master projects
If you are an HU bachelor or master student in Mathematics or Physics and you are interested to do a bachelor or master thesis, write me an email (I may not be able to accomodate all requests).
If you are a HU Physics student who would like to do a thesis with a colleague in the Institute of Mathematics, I could act as an official supervisor (to be discussed case by case).
Remark: The earliest I can start supervising new thesis projects is October 2025.
