Lukas Jannik Woike

I am a PhD student in Mathematics funded by the Research Training Group 1670 "Mathematics Inspired by String Theory and QFT" at the University of Hamburg.
My advisor is Christoph Schweigert.

Research interests

Algebraic and quantum topology, representation theory, in particular topological field theory.

My projects are concerned with

• extended equivariant topological field theories and their orbifoldization as well as higher-categorical aspects of equivariant topological field theories,
• applications of homotopical algebra (in particular operads) to non-semisimple representation categories leading to modular functors with values in chain complexes.
