Welcome! I'm a member of the Computer Science Institute of Charles University in Prague, Czechia. I like designing efficient algorithms and data structures for various problems, such as streaming quantile estimation, dynamic geometric streams, online scheduling, k-mer sets, etc. My research is currently mainly supported by ERC CZ project on the development of streaming algorithms.

Research group:

There is an open PhD student position in my group, starting October 2025. Official advert for the whole institute. Feel free to email me if you're interested!

Alumni:

Short bio: From September 2018 to April 2021, I was happy to be a postdoc of Graham Cormode at the Department of Computer Science, University of Warwick. From 2014-2018, I was a PhD student at Charles University, fortunate to be advised by Jiří Sgall.
