Research

I am currently working on Grothendieck-Verdier categories. These are monoidal categories with a duality structure that is more general than rigidity. Grothendieck-Verdier categories occur as representation categories of vertex operator algebras. This has been my motivation for studying them.

Theses
  • My bachelor's thesis characterizes linearly distributive categories with invertible distributors as shift monoidal categories up to Frobenius linearly distributive equivalence.
  • My master's thesis uses surface diagrams to study Frobenius algebras in linearly distributive categories, Hopf monads, Hopf algebroids, Hopf adjunctions, and Frobenius-Schur indicators for pivotal Grothendieck-Verdier categories.
