I work in the Research and Development Department of the German Federal Pension Insurance (Deutsche Rentenversicherung Bund). My responsibilities there include research on the distributional impacts of pension policy, public pension finances and the relationship between climate change and old-age provision.
Before working at the German Federal Pension Insurance, I was a postdoctroal researcher at the University of Potsdam in Christian Baer’s Geometry Group. I did my PhD under the supervision of Thomas Schick at the University of Göttingen. During my doctoral and postdoctoral research I used index theoretic methods to answer questions on the existence of positive scalar curvature metrics on manifolds with boundary and to learn about the space of such metrics.
From time to time I will post some thoughts (mostly on pension policy) in the Blog section of this website.
Note: My last name is Seyed Hosseini. In some of my publications it has been written without a space (i.e., Seyedhosseini)
