BIO

I am a research mathematician who works at the University of Sydney, at the School of Mathematics and Statistics.

 

I consider myself as a "forever student of life", and I am fueled by my passion for understanding the nuances of categorical algebra and representation theory.

 

My research is focused on the various aspects of categorical representation theory (also called 2-representation theory), including the abstract theory but also its applications and analytic aspects, making me a mathematician standing in between algebra, category theory and topology. The main applications and inspirations of my work are in and come from modular representation theory, low-dimensional topology, algebraic combinatorics, fusion and modular categories, quantum and string physics, group and semigroup theory, cryptography and machine learning.
