Welcome to my page. I am a PhD candidate at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in the research group General Theory of Complex Systems. My advisor is Jürgen Jost.
I am interested in systems, their structure, and their invariants. I have to deal with dynamical systems, measure theory, and (metric) topology, although I do not understand any of these fields as well as I would like to. Lately, I took the habit of using the language of category theory.
I am an economist by training and retain a residual interest in game theory and learning in games.

Projects

I work on a categorical approach to possibility and probability with Tobias Fritz and Paolo Perrone. I will give a talk on this at Syco 3 in the end of March 2019.
I work on topological dynamics with Leonhard Horstmeyer.

Talks and Conferences

March 2018: I gave a talk at the conference Complexis 2018 on work with Ivan Yamshchikov. The conference paper is published.
March 2018: I was invited to give a talk at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna: 'Some data on electoral competition and a toy model'.
September 2017: Martin Pollrich presented our work at the Meeting of the German Economic Association: 'Supplying experiments to persuade'.
