About us

“I want to thank my supervisor Norbert Poncin, especially for his patience, for sharing his insights with me and for all the things, which I learned from him: They range from derived geometry to teaching methods which sparkle interest in maths and the art of explaining things in a structured manner. I am deeply grateful to him as he always saw my potential and gave me inspiration 
and motivation.”

“I want to give very special thanks to Norbert Poncin. I learnt from him supergeometry in the best possible way. He enriched my doctoral experience with clear knowledge, kind guidance and his strongly essential role in our research group.”

PhD student

“The completion of this dissertation has been a long journey. First and foremost I want to thank my advisor N. Poncin. I much appreciated all his contributions of time, energy, ideas, and encouragements, which made my PhD experience stimulating and productive. In the middle of the storm, he believed in me and he helped me to get out. I am also thankful for the excellent working conditions he provided for his research group ‘Geometry, Algebra and Physics’, without which parts of this work would not have been possible.”

PhD student

“I would like to thank my supervisor Prof. Dr. Norbert Poncin for his dedication and continuous support. With his enthusiasm for supergeometry and his outstanding ability to explain complex concepts in a simple way he guided me through this project and helped me develop a strong interest for supergeometry in connection with my thesis and beyond.”

“I would like to express deep gratitude to Prof. Norbert Poncin. I have greatly benefited from the lecture course ‘Superalgebra and Supergeometry’ he gave at the University of Luxembourg in fall 2009, as well as from all the enriching discussions I could have with him.”

Master student

“Dear Prof. Poncin, please find attached the final version of our document… We would like to use this email to thank you for the inspiring lectures you gave to us in the past three semesters.”

Master student

“Dear Professor Poncin, I wanted to thank you for the wonderful lecture this morning. The perfect balance between developments based on technical yet simple computations, recalling statements we have previously seen, and giving us insight into the work of scientists have made today’s lecture highly enjoyable!”

Master student

“Bonjour Monsieur Poncin, … Au-delà de la partie ‘contenu’ du cours, j’ai été très impressionné par la pédagogie dont vous avez fait preuve lors de l’enseignement de cette matière : voix haute et intelligible, écriture très lisible, gestion efficace de l’espace du tableau, et surtout votre capacité à ne devoir recourir à aucune note de référence lors des cours. Ce sont des qualités que je ne me souviens pas avoir connues chez mes professeurs … (du moins pas toutes en même temps).”

Master student
