About Me

---

I am a professor for mathematics at the University of Greifswald.

My research lies at the interface of geometry, topology, analysis, and mathematical physics. A recurring theme is the use of geometric and homotopy-theoretic structures to organize problems arising from quantum field theory and condensed matter physics.

My current work develops this theme in two interconnected directions: coarse-geometric approaches to topological phases of matter, and higher-geometric approaches to string geometry and functorial field theory. You can find more information here.

I obtained my PhD from the University of Potsdam under the supervision of Christian Bär. I was a PostDoc at MPIM Bonn, where my mentor was Peter Teichner and at the University of Adelaide, with Mathai Varghese. Before coming to Greifswald, I was a PostDoc at the University of Regensburg in the group of Bernd Ammann.

You can find a longer CV here.
