Work history

Research assistant

Imperial College London
London
06.2022 - 08.2022
  • Mapped the literature on the Grothendieck Cousin Complexes and both analytic / algebraic versions of the Borel–Weil Theorem, distilling several papers into a technical report for the Algebra & Number Theory group.
  • Reproduced key examples of representations of Lie groups and Generalized them into the quantum case.

Research assistant

University of Nottingham
Nottingham
06.2021 - 10.2021
  • Surveyed recent work on braiding structures of quantum groups and Summarized in a technical report.
  • Derived a matrix‑based criterion for detecting non‑degenerate braidings of comodules, providing a shorter proof than existing tensor‑category approaches.

Research assistant

University of Nottingham
Nottingham
06.2020 - 10.2020
  • Investigated solution counts of 2 × 2 matrix polynomials of degree ≤ 3, discussing the possible number of the solutions via eigenvalue factorisation and resultant techniques.
  • An upper bound for the number of solutions can be abstractly established using algebraic‑geometric methods.
