Valentino Tosatti
Valentino Tosatti studies the properties of spatial objects from their inherent connectivity while ignoring the detailed form. His research has helped to solve several problems in mathematics that are applicable to string theoretical models of grand unification. Dr. Tosatti conducted a complete analysis of adiabatic limits of Ricci-flat metrics. In addition, he found a complete solution of the Calabi-Yau equation on Hermitian manifolds. Dr. Tosatti says that receiving the Blavatnik Award has given him more freedom to pursue areas of research that he is interested in including a study of a generalization of Calabi-Yau spaces and their geometry, and the creation of a new evolution equation on a general class of geometric spaces, which aims to deform a given space to its most symmetric shape (if it exists). He has also recently studied connections with problems in algebraic geometry.
