MPIM mourns death of Tobias Kreutz

The Max Planck Institute for Mathematics mourns the death of its postdoctoral fellow

Tobias Kreutz ( * 04.08.1996 - † 08.08.2024).

He completed his PhD in 2022 at the Humboldt University Berlin under the guidance of Bruno Klingler and Laurent Fargues. Since then he has been a visitor at the institute. Tobias has been working at the interface of complex and $p$-adic Hodge theory, with particular focus on the transcendental periods arising in both settings. In his last paper, he has proposed obstructions to complex Hodge structures being of geometric origin. He was a cherished member of our community and will be greatly missed by his friends and colleagues.
