At the moment I am a PhD student of Prof. Dr. Henning Krause
at Bielefeld University.
The following few lines are a short introduction of myself. Please
contact me in person if you would like to know more or for a current CV.
In my BSc studies at the University of Bonn
I quickly specialised in algebra and was supervised by
Prof. Dr. Catharina Stroppel
in my thesis. It discussed the connection between
R-matrices
arising in quantised
Young-Baxter equations,
linking them with knot theory
and the Jones polynomial in particular.
After my time in Bonn I moved to Cardiff for part-time work and
part-time MSc studies in
mathematical sciences
at the University of Bath.
As part of my job I came in contact with various data mining and statistical
modelling techniques, whilst taking lectures of a wider mathematical variety.
During that time I also deepened my knowledge in scientific and
commercial programming languages such as R, Fortran, C and C++,
PL/SQL, Hive and Python.
Please see the list of further links
for recommended websites to some of these languages.
At the end of MSc course I once again
concentrated on algebraic topics, both attending and also giving a
talk on the Laurent phenomenon in the Postgraduate Geometry & Algebra Seminar.
This led to my final project on Quantised Enveloping Algebras and Quantum Cluster Algebras,
supervised by Prof. Dr. Alastair D. King.
Subsequently I moved back to Germany to pursue my PhD studies in
representation theory and (quantum) cluster algebras.
My first paper joint with Philipp Lampe
can be found here, and I also created a complementary website.
It showcases some of the SAGE code I created during this first project and
highlights that even topics in abstract algebra can be approached with
computational methods.
