“I did my master’s at Sorbonne Université in Paris with a thesis about Paul Nelson's papers on quantum variance on quaternion algebras. Before that, I was a bachelor’s student here at the department, and I am very happy to be back”, says Markus.

“For my PhD, supervised by Jasmin Matz, I will study analytic aspects of automorphic forms. Initially, I will attempt to improve certain averaged equidistribution results (perhaps including the aforementioned ones of Nelson) to smaller families of forms.”
