Daniil Mamaev
I am a mathematician interested in geometry and topology. I mostly think about symplectic topology and homological mirror symmetry these days.
I am doing a PhD under the supervision of Yankı Lekili at the London School of Geometry and Number Theory and expect to finish by September 2025.
I obtained my bachelor's (2019) and master's (2021) degrees from St. Petersburg State University.
