{{page>inc&noheader&nofooter}} {{:users:buffiere:screenshot_from_2025-02-20_11-08-36.png?200|}} PhD student at IRIF (Université Paris Cité) & CAMS (EHESS) since October 2024. My advisors are [[https://www.irif.fr/~schmitz|Sylvain Schmitz]] and [[http://madezhi.free.fr/|Patrice Ossona de Mendez]]. My interests include combinatorics, (structural) graph theory, (finite) model theory and (parameterized) algorithms. Some topics I am working on are NIP and stable hereditary classes of graphs, FO transductions, linear clique-width, preservation theorems, cops & robber games. __ Papers :__ * [[https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.00594|Decomposing graphs into stable and ordered parts]],// with Patrice Ossona de Mendez//, preprint * Blind cop-width and balanced minors of graphs, // with Rutger Campbell, Kevin Hendrey and Sang-il Oum//, extended abstract accepted at Eurocomb '25 * [[https://igt.centre-mersenne.org/articles/10.5802/igt.5/|Shallow vertex minors, stability, and dependence]], // with Eun-Jung Kim and Patrice Ossona de Mendez//, Innovations in Graph Theory, Volume 1 (2024), pp. 87-112.
