*Çağlar in the native script, and pronounced like "Chaw-lar".
I obtained my PhD at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in August 2017 under the direction of Christopher J. Leininger (now at Rice) and Ilya Kapovich (now at CUNY). Before coming to Madison in Fall 2021, I was a Gibbs Assistant Professor at Yale.
I am interested in Geometric Topology, Geometric Group Theory, Ergodic Theory and Dynamics. Check out my research page for publications, preprints and notes. My research is partially supported by an NSF CAREER award. I am also a co-PI on the RTG: Geometry, Group Actions and Dynamics at Wisconsin.
I share in Federico Ardila's axioms. I also support the statement of inclusiveness.
