Talks and seminars
A selection of talks and presentations I have given in different contexts.
May 27, 2027
Talk, CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research, Meyrin, Switzerland
A long talk for a group of High School students from Thailand and a group of Bachelor students from Malta in visit at CERN. The materials of the talk are available here and here. It was a very nice opportunity to discuss some in aspects, similarities and differences between quantum computing and classical processing, with a dynamic final Q&A session.

Talk, CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research, Meyrin, Switzerland
Presentation for a journal club session at CERN. I discussed the implementation details about an orchestration framework I have developed to run some specific quantum-enhanced tasks (e.g., circuit cutting and sample-based-diagonalization) on a cluster using Kubernetes. The framework works also with a common user interface that scientists without previous experience on cluster computing can use. The slides are available here. If possible I will also upload the code as soon as the beta-testing phase is completed.

Seminar, Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Mainz, Germany
Talk at the seminar “Stochastische Techniken in mathematischer Modellierung” organized by Prof. Mária Lukácová-Medvidová at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany). The main topic was time-dependent statistical mechanics. The web page of the seminar is available here. The notes of the talk are available here.
January 25, 2019
Seminar, Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Mainz, Germany
Talk at the seminar “Advanced methods of averaging in Ordinary Differential Equations” organized by Prof. Alan Rendall at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany). The topic I discussed was about the Hill equation. The website of the event is available here. The notes of the talk are available here.
October 29, 2018
Seminar, Johannes Gutenberg University, Department of Mathematics, Mainz, Germany
Talk at the seminar “Geometrie auf der Sphäre und im hyperbolischen Raum” organized by Prof. Margarita Kraus at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany). The main point was to show that the isometry group of the hyperbolic space is isomorphic to a subgroup of the Möbius group of the sphere. The notes of the talk are available here.
June 30, 2013
Stage, INFN-LNF, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF)
Talk (in italian) concluding the residential stage in Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF), supervised by Dott. Danilo Babusci. The topic I studied was the relationship between the quantization of the action functional and the value of Plank’s constant, measured also experimentally during the stage using LEDs. The notes (written in italian) of the talk are available here.
