Juan Pablo Vigneaux
Mathematician
Currently, I am an Olga Taussky and John Todd Instructor in Mathematics at Caltech, mentored by Matilde Marcolli. We co-organize the Information, Geometry, and Physics Seminar.
Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences. In 2019, I obtained my Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Paris under the supervision of Daniel Bennequin.
I’m broadly interested in mathematical aspects of information theory, particularly in connection with category theory and geometry (metric geometry, geometric measure theory, …).
My published work can be divided in three different areas:
- Characterization of information measures, mainly information topology.
- Information dimension and measures with geometric structure.
- Magnitude and diversity.
I’m currently mostly working on explainable AI and mechanistic interpretability of neural networks. For further details, see the research section.
Here’s my academic CV.
