I am a researcher in applied mathematics in the Inria project-team Makutu, at the University of Pau et des Pays de l'Adour. My research is centered on inverse wave problems, with an emphasis on time-harmonic wave equations, seismic imaging, and helioseismology. I develop and maintain the open-source parallel software hawen for nonlinear inversions.


    Ongoing Projects


  • ERC Starting-Grant INCORWAVE (2024--2029): Nonlinear inversion of correlation waveforms with hierarchical reconstructions. European project focusing on passive imaging in terrestrial and extra-terrestrial inverse problems. https://ffaucher.gitlab.io/erc-incorwave/
  • ANR-DFG Project BUTTERFLY (2024--2027): computation of stellar butterfly diagram; joint project with the University of Göttingen. The project is co-funded by the French ANR and the German DFG.
