Personal Website

My research is in mathematical physics where I am interested in geometric and algebraic methods of quantum field theory. In particular, my focus lies on topological quantum field theories, local gauge theories, algebraic topology, symplectic geometry and higher structures in quantum field theory.

If you are interested in doing a master thesis or semester thesis with me, you can contact me by email. Here is a list of potential topics for a master thesis and here is a list of potential topics for a semester thesis.
