Viviane Baladi

Viviane Baladi has been working as a researcher for CNRS since 1990 (currently Directeur de Recherche at Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu-Paris Rive Gauche), spending several academic years on leave to teach at the Universities of Geneva and Copenhagen, and at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich. Her interest in dynamical zeta functions and transfer operators developed during her Ph.D. in Geneva. She has since applied transfer operators to algorithmics, linear response and the violation thereof, and rates of mixing for Sinai billiards. She has further played a key role introducing anisotropic spaces of distributions in dynamical systems.
