Silvio Barandun

Hi! My name is Silvio

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Department of Mathematics at MIT, working in the group Nanostructures and Computation lead by Prof. S. G. Johnson.

I defended my PhD in April 2025 after working at the Department of Mathematics of ETH Zurich under the supervision of Prof. H. Ammari.

I research photonic and phononic wave propagation in complex media. I am mostly interested in non-Hermitian systems with a geometric component.

You can contact me at lastname (at) mit.edu.
My office is The Simons Building (Building 2) 241
