Intro
I am an associate professor (maître de conférences) in the Department of Mathematics at Université Paris Cité. I am a member of the Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu–Paris Rive Gauche (IMJ-PRG) and deputy head of the team-project Algebraic Geometry & Topology (TGA). Moreover, I am a junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF) for the period 2025—2030.
I am the scientific coordinator of the ANR Young Researcher project “Structure and Homotopy of Configuration Spaces” (SHoCoS).
I received my PhD in 2017 from Université de Lille under the supervision of Benoit Fresse, and my Habilitation to Supervise Research (HDR) in 2025 from Université Paris Cité. More details can be found in my CV.
My main research interests lie in the theory of operads and their applications to algebraic topology and homological algebra. I am particularly interested in configuration spaces of manifolds, their connections with graph complexes, and the invariants they define. More recently, I have also been exploring the phenomenon of representation stability.
My full last name is “Idrissi-Kaïtouni” and you may find this spelling in some places, e.g., my email address.
