Karim Ritter von Merkl

I am a doctoral researcher at the Department of Mathematics under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Paul Wedrich. I am also a member of the Collaborative Research Centre 1624 “Higher Structures, Moduli Spaces and Integrability” and the “Quantum Universe” Cluster of Excellence.

My research focuses on (colored) Khovanov homology, gl_N link homology, and the link homology of cables. I am interested in both concrete computational methods and the underlying categorical structures. I have also developed an online database of colored superpolynomials.

Further information can be found on my personal website.
