Research interests:

    • Representation theory of Lie algebras

    • Connections to Topology (in particular knot invariants, manifold invariants)

    • Categorification and TQFT

    • Combinatorial aspects of representation theory (Schubert calculus, Kazdhan-Lusztig theory, canonical bases etc.)

    • Hecke algebras and their representation theory

    • Diagram algebras categorification and higher category theory

Our working group:
