My PhD dissertation
My PhD dissertation pertains to instruments described in Latin texts between the 13th to the 16th century on the topic of eclipse computations. The goal of this research is to think about the notion of instrumented calculation in mathematical disciplines of the quadrivium, and to present a material history of ancient mathematical practices. For this, I am supervised by Agathe Keller in the Sphere laboratory as well as by Matthieu Husson in the Observatoire de Paris.

Master's thesis: "Astronomie médiévale, des presses humanistes à la période Moderne. Patrimonialisation des tables alphonsines dans la culture des imprimés (1483-1641)."
My Master's thesis, written under the supervision of Matthieu Husson and Sara Confalonieri, pertains to the "Tables of King Alfonso"'s printed editions. These tables were, especially after the 14th century, the main tool Latin-speaking astronomers and astrologers could use to compute planetary positions. My research mainly consisted in showing that people who contributed to the printing of these "Tables of King Alfonso" in Latin did so in a particular economical, political and scientific contexte which lead them to adopt a specific interpretation of the coherence of texts and tables assembled under this title.
Essays from my master's degree
Double-preuve des racines d'un polynôme
This essay was written for the second-year course in history of mathematics supervised by Sara Confalonieri. It deals with two proofs given by Leonardo Fibonacci for the root of a second-order polynomial and compares it with the proof given by Al-Khwārizmī for the same equation some centuries before. My objective through this work was especially to think about the idea of "trans-configurational approach" developped by Marco Panza (and to learn to read Arabic texts)
Les sphères: les atomes du mouvement des planètes
This essay was written for he second year course in science and philosophy around the Mediterranean Sea, organised by Crstina Cerami and Aurelien Robert, which mainly dealt with the notions of atomism and continuity. My goal was to articulate these two notions around the conception of astronomical motions as a composition of spherical motions, especially in Greek astronomy.
La Mathesis universalis chez Gottfried Leibniz
This essay was written as part of the first year course in philosophy of mathematics supervised by Brice Halimi, centered around the notion of generality at the crossing point between philosophy and mathematics. For this paper, I explored Gottfried Leibniz's "mathesis universalis" project to discussed the way in which the philosopher deals with the question of generality, and how he deploys the construction of "generality" through his project.
Définir la proportionnalité avec Euclide
This essay is focused on the 5th definition of Euclid's Elements book V, from the Greek edition given by Johan Heiberg. It was written for the first-year course of introduction in the history of mathematics lead by Sara Confalonieri.
La méchanique analitique de Joseph-Louis Lagrange
As part of the first-year physics class lead by Étienne Parizot, I wrote about the development of the "Lagrangian equations" in Joseph-Louis Lagrange's 1788 treaty and in his correspondance.
