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.
My work is at the intersection of mathematics and theoretical computer science. I am interested in systems, their structure, and their invariants. I work with dynamical systems, measure theory, and (metric) topology. Sometimes, I use the language of category theory.
I am an economist by training and retain an interest in game theory and learning in games.

Projects and Preprints

I work on a categorical approach to possibility and probability with Tobias Fritz and Paolo Perrone. Have a look at the arxiv paper.
I work on topological dynamics with Leonhard Horstmeyer. Have a look at the arxiv paper.
