Robert Won

Robert Won is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Georgetown University, located at 801 22nd St NW, Washington DC 20052. His academic journey includes a B.S. from Duke University (2011) and a Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego (2016). Before joining Georgetown, he held postdoctoral positions at the University of Washington (2018–2021) and Wake Forest University (2016–2018).

His research focuses on noncommutative algebra, particularly in areas such as Hopf algebras, quantum symmetries, and invariant theory. Specific interests include weak Hopf algebras, algebraic structures in comodule categories, and the study of symmetries captured through algebraic actions. These investigations explore connections between noncommutative ring theory, quantum groups, and categorical frameworks.

Recent publications highlight advancements in understanding Hopf actions on algebras, structural properties of Bell-Rogalski algebras, and the dynamics of quantum semigroupoids. His work contributes to foundational aspects of noncommutative geometry and invariant theory, often intersecting with combinatorial problems in algebraic settings.
