Bruno Leonardo Macedo Ferreira, mathematician and professor

About

I am a mathematician working primarily in algebra, with emphasis on nonassociative structures and the characterization of mappings on associative and nonassociative systems. My research includes alternative and Jordan algebras, derivations, functional identities, preserver-type problems, and related structural questions.

I received my M.Sc. in Mathematics from the University of São Paulo in 2010 and my Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of São Paulo in 2013. I am currently a Professor of Mathematics at UTFPR, Guarapuava Campus.
