Merlin Christ

I am a PhD student (since April 2020) in mathematics in the Quantum Universe Research School . My supervisor is Tobias Dyckerhoff.

Research interests:
Higher categorical structures in categorification, representation theory, Fukaya categories and cluster algebras.
More specifically, I am currently studying perverse schobers on surfaces (certain sheaves/cosheaves of enhanced triangulated categories) and their applications.

Preprints:

• Geometric models for Ginzburg algebras of n-angulated surfaces via local-to-global principles arXiv:2107.10091 (video)
  
• Ginzburg algebras of triangulated surfaces and perverse schobers arXiv:2101.01939 (video)
  Submitted.
• Spherical monadic adjunctions of stable infinity categories arXiv:2010.05294
  Submitted.
