Sébastien Boucksom

Sébastien Boucksom is a French mathematician known for his significant contributions to complex geometry and algebraic geometry. He is particularly recognized for his work on Kähler manifolds, positivity of line bundles, and pluripotential theory.

Boucksom has conducted influential research on the theory of currents and their applications in complex geometry. One of his notable contributions is the development of a numerical characterization of the Kähler cone of a compact Kähler manifold, which has deep implications in understanding the geometry of complex manifolds. He has also worked on extending concepts of positivity in algebraic geometry, such as the study of pseudoeffective and nef cones, and has collaborated on research involving Monge-Ampère equations.

He is a researcher at the Centre de Mathématiques Laurent Schwartz (CMLS) at the École Polytechnique in France. Boucksom has published numerous papers in prestigious mathematical journals, and his work is highly regarded in the mathematical community for advancing the understanding of complex geometric structures.
