Ibrahim Ekren is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics. Prior to arriving at FSU in the Fall of 2018 he was a Byrne Research Post-Doctoral Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan (2017-2018) and postdoctoral research at ETH Zurich (2014-2017).

In 2014, he obtained his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Southern California, where he worked under the supervision of Prof Jianfeng Zhang. He received his master's degree from Universite Pierre et-Marie-Curie, Paris, in 2010 and Diplome d'ingenieur from Ecole Polytechnique in 2009.

In financial mathematics, his research interests include equilibrium and asymptotic results for market illiquidity and optimal transport duality. In stochastic analysis, his work includes viscosity solutions for non-Markovian stochastic systems, Malliavin calculus, rough paths and invariant measures for dispersive SPDEs.
