Research title: Schottky Groups and the construction of higher genus Frobenius manifolds

Research Summary

I am broadly interested in the theory of Dubrovin-Frobenius manifolds and its relation with integrable systems, as well as the various differential and algebraic geometric structures that have stemmed from it.

More specifically, I have been focusing on the intertwining - typically given in terms of coverings - of the Dubrovin-Frobenius manifold structures on orbit spaces of (extensions of) reflection groups and on Hurwitz spaces, and how that is connected to symmetries of the underlying WDVV equations.
