A.Della Corte

Hi, I'm Alessandro Della Corte, an Italian mathematical physicist working at University of Camerino. My current main research interests are topological and symbolic dynamics and combinatorics on words... but in general I am quite a curious person, always hungry for new math problems - especially deceptively simple ones.

Big fan of Emanuel Lasker!
