Anna Holmlund

Postdoctor at the Division of Algebra and Geometry (Akelius Math Learning Lab)

I am a postdoctoral researcher at Chalmers and part of the Akelius Math Learning Lab, where we develop and analyse teaching materials in mathematics. My research focuses on algebra teaching in lower and upper secondary school, with a particular interest in how pupils' awareness of structures in linear equations is affected by irrelevant aspects, such as the presence of decimals or negative numbers. The research is practice-based and combines qualitative and experimental methods, with the goal of both contributing ideas for teaching and investigating more general questions about how pupils learn mathematics.

Simon Jacobsson

Doctor at the Division of Algebra and Geometry

Kähler manifolds have a rich structure that unites complex, Riemannian, and symplectic geometry. If such a manifold also solves Einstein field equations in vacuum, it is called Kähler-Einstein. My project is about simulating physical systems on analytic manifolds where a Kähler-Einstein structure arises emergently. The main tool comes from geometric fluid dynamics and makes it possible to lift the simulation from the analytic manifold to an associated Lie algebra. Previously, I have researched the geometry of matrices with fixed rank, which form a submanifold of the surrounding linear space of matrices.
