About | Elliot Kienzle
I am a first year mathematics PhD student at UC Berkeley. I'm interested in physical mathematics, especially its intersections with geometry and topology. I graduated from University of Maryland (UMD) with a degree in mathematics and physics Mathematically, I am primarily a geometer. I'm most comfortable with complex manifolds, but I am slowly branching out to more algebraic and analytic flavors of geometry. Physically, I like whatever it takes to give me my geometry. Here is a list of keywords which I know some things about, and wish to get to know much better: My previous research applied Higgs bundles to a condensed matter physics system. You can read about it here. To see other things I've thought a lot about, check out my past talks. To see what I'm thinking about at this exact moment, you can peek inside my math diary. I was drawn to geometry because my approach to math is very visual. I try to capture my images of mathematical objects using digital art, which you can check out i

Cursed geometry with a pointless compass Hello! I'm Elliot Kienzle, a fourth year mathematics PhD student at UC Berkeley, advised by Constantin Teleman. I'm interested in physical mathematics, especially its intersections with geometry, and mathematical illustration Math I like geometry in whatever form it may take. Right now I'm primarily a symplectic geometer. I'm currently studying symplectic ball packing through the lens of…
