Biography: 

Julien Paupert's research is in geometry and topology; more precisely he studies tessellations and their symmetry groups in hyperbolic geometry.

A tessellation is a way of filling space with non-overlapping tiles in a pattern that repeats infinitely often. A lattice is the symmetry group of a tessellation. For example, the Euclidean plane (or 3-space, or higher) can be tessellated by squares (or cubes, or hypercubes), and the corresponding lattice is a product of infinite cyclic groups. The full understanding of all crystallographic structures in 3 dimensions is crucial in Chemistry.

Analogous tessellations in hyperbolic spaces are much more abundant and much less understood. Hyperbolic spaces are spaces with negative curvature, which means loosely that non-intersecting lines diverge from each other in both directions. These spaces appear naturally in special relativity, as Lorentz and Minkowski space-times.
