Francesco Lin

Associate Professor of Mathematics at Columbia University. My CV and MathGenealogy.


Office: Mathematics 613.

I will be on leave in Fall 2025. Among the other things, I will teach a topics course at the University of Pisa.

In Spring 2026, I will teach Modern Analysis II.


My work focuses on the interplay between geometry and topology in low-dimensions. I think a lot about three-manifolds, Floer homology, hyperbolic geometry, spectral theory and the equations of Maxwell and Dirac.
