Peruvian mathematician. Represented Peru at the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) in 2011 and 2012. Studied mathematics at Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru (BS, 2013-2017), then applied mathematics at Ecole Polytechnique (MS, 2018-2020) and ENS Paris-Saclay (MS Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, 2020-2021), based in Paris. Internships: research intern at Facebook AI (2021), quantitative research intern at Squarepoint Capital in Singapore (2020), intern at FieldBox.ai (2019), teaching assistant at PUCP (2017).

• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. LinkedIn enrichment reports a Quantitative Research Intern role at Squarepoint Capital in Singapore in 2020, and Squarepoint Capital's own site states it runs systematic and quantitative strategies, so the employer is a genuine quantitative hedge fund/market participant. The role is an internship (a real work engagement, not a student program or insight day). Identity is supported by the alignment of the LinkedIn profile (Paris, Ecole Polytechnique / ENS Paris-Saclay, Facebook AI research) with the Peru IMO 2011/2012 olympiad identity. The Squarepoint role rests on profile/index data; the employer classification rests on Squarepoint's own public description. No independent primary-source document for the internship itself was found.2020
• Author of 'Differentially Private Exploration in Reinforcement Learning with Linear Representation' (arXiv 2112.01585, 2021) with Evrard Garcelon, Alessandro Lazaric and Matteo Pirotta; the paper notes the work was done while at Facebook AI Research.Dec 2, 2021
• Identity cross-check: the same name 'Paul Luyo' appears as a Facebook AI research intern in Paris, on the IMO 2011/2012 Peru teams, and on the PUCP ICPC team, tying the LinkedIn profile to the Peruvian olympiad identity.Dec 2, 2021
• Served as a research intern at Facebook AI (Meta AI) in Paris in 2021, working on differentially private reinforcement learning; the resulting paper is cited in later privacy-in-RL literature.2021
• Quantitative Research Intern at Squarepoint Capital (Singapore) in 2020, per LinkedIn enrichment. Squarepoint Capital describes itself as running systematic and quantitative strategies, so this is a genuine quant-finance employer; the role itself rests on index/profile data only, not an independent primary source.2020
• Represented Peru at IMO 2012 and won a silver medal with 41 points; mathandarte blog reported 'Paul Luyo Carbonero: 41 puntos (PLATA)'.Nov 3, 2012
• Represented Peru at IMO 2011 and received an honourable mention, one of three Peruvian mentions that year.Jul 30, 2011
• Won medals at Iberoamerican Mathematical Olympiads before the IMO: gold at age 16 (panamericana report) and a silver at age 15, per Andina.
• Education trajectory moves from a BS in Mathematics at PUCP (2013-2017) to an MS in Applied Mathematics at Ecole Polytechnique (2018-2020) and an MS in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at ENS Paris-Saclay (2020-2021), then research work in Paris.
• Competed at the ACM-ICPC 2014 World Finals on a Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru team (ranked 103-122).Jun 25, 2014
• Intern at FieldBox.ai (Paris) in 2019; FieldBox.ai is an industrial-AI company, not a quantitative-finance firm.2019
• Teaching assistant at Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru in 2017 (undergraduate).2017
