My name is Lâm Thanh-Tùng (Lâm is my surname), and I usually go by Tung Lam. I am a PhD candidate in Mathematics at SUNY Albany, advised by Justin Curry and Michael Lesnick. My research is in Topological Data Analysis, with an emphasis on both theoretical foundations and practical computation.

I am particularly interested in multiparameter persistence as a framework for analyzing time-varying data, including dynamical systems, time-dependent networks, and collective motions. A central goal of my work is to develop multiparameter methods that are theoretically sound, with an eye toward computational practicality, and to apply these tools to problems in applied domains (such as materials science, biology, climate science, etc). More broadly, I am interested in how multiparameter TDA can be combined with machine learning approaches to improve the analysis and interpretation of complex, evolving datasets.

Visualization of the Lorentz Attractor (left), with its trajectory (over 16,000 timesteps) represented as a point cloud, endowed with an associated time function. A function-Delaunay bifiltration \(\mathcal F_\bullet\), which simultaneously filters the point cloud by time and radius, is constructed on this point cloud. The bi-persistence module \(H_1(\mathcal F_\bullet)\) is then computed, and its rank invariant is visualized using RIVET (right).

Here is my CV.

I am currently co-organizing the ATiA seminar. This seminar alternates between informal group meetings and more formal talks given by invited speakers. If you are interested in giving a talk, please send me an email.
