I was born in 1985 in Priverno (LT), Italy, and graduated from the Electronic Engineering Faculty, at Sapienza University of Rome in 2013. I got a Ph.D. in Mathematical Models for Engineering, Electromagnetism, and Nanosciences (curriculum in Mathematics for Engineering) at the Sapienza University of Rome in 2017.

I am an Assistant Professor (Ricercatore a Tempo Determinato di Tipo B) in Mathematics at the Department of Economics, Roma Tre University, and here I currently teach a basic mathematics course.

I work in functional analysis, wavelet analysis, series expansions in Hilbert spaces, and multi-agent systems. I try to apply the results obtained in these fields to data science and finance (in particular, the so-called energy finance). Other research areas (past or present) are special functions, functional analysis, signal theory, robotics, and mathematical biology.

The data I usually work with includes energy futures prices, Twitter data (I have a Twitter developer account), and Facebook data (I am the winner of the Facebook and Social Science One data grant, as co-investigator).

I am on the Editorial Board of SN Business & Economics, American Journal of Applied Sciences, Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, PLOS ONE and Frontiers in Physics. I was visiting professor at the Mathematics and Statistics Department of Florida International University (2022) where I also taught lectures on frames, waveform dictionaries, and Gabor/ wavelet expansions in finance.

New! Special Issue “Entropy-Based Methods for Finance and Risk Management” on the journal Entropy, guest-edited by me and Prof Mastroeni. Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 July 2023. If you have any related work, please get in touch. Details here.

Here you will find information about my papers and preprints, my biography, and my teaching activity. Insights, suggestions, and comments about the material on that website are welcome.
