Laurent Bartholdi is a Swiss mathematician working in the areas of geometric group theory, symbolic dynamics, and computational complexity. He is particularly well-known for his contributions to the study of self-similar groups and amenability of groups. Currently Bartholdi is a CNRS Directeur de Recherche at Institut Camille Jordan, Claude Bernard University Lyon 1Recrutements, 2025, Institut Camille Jordan, Claude Bernard University Lyon 1.
