Welcome to my personal webpage!

I am a second year PhD student at the University Paris-Sud (Orsay, France) and my PhD superviser is Jean-François Le Gall. My research interests are centered around the scaling limits of various discrete random structures such as random walks, random dissections and random trees.

You can find my CV here, and my email is: igor (dot) kortchemski (at) normalesup (dot) org . Click here for a photo of me proving a theorem.

An example of a random object I have been studying:

The first figure is a particular type of subcritical Galton-Watson tree, called nongeneric, with 24045 vertices. The second figure is a uniform tree with 27129 vertices (approximating Aldous' Brownien Continuum Random Tree).

Another example of a random tree:

This is a realization of a critical Galton-Watson tree, conditioned on having 15.000 vertices, and whose offpsring distribution is in the domain of attraction of a stable law of index 3/2.

Here is another cool object:

This is a realization of the Aldous' Brownian triangulation of the disk.
