Jonathan Delgado
PhD Candidate in Pure Mathematics · University of California, Irvine
I work in differential geometry with a focus on gauge theory. I am especially interested in variants of the Yang-Mills functional, and perturbations of its moduli space. My current work focuses on the cone Yang-Mills functional, a functional which twists the curvature and Higgs field by a closed 2-form.
I am also passionate about interdisciplinary work. I have worked on projects including: bounding the resolvent degree of finite simple groups, finite-time typicality in stochastic thermodynamics, and machine learning inference of black hole observables.

About
I grew up in Massachusetts in a Colombian-Cuban family, speaking English and Spanish. Alongside mathematics I write software (for research and for fun). Everything I write is open source on GitHub. That includes STP, a Python library for stochastic thermodynamics; MakeProject, a project generator driven by YAML templates; and FinderSessionManager, a tab manager for macOS Finder.
I am always happy to talk about mathematics or programming to collaborate, or just to talk. Reach me at
