Dom Verity

Prof Dom Verity is a Professor in the Mathematical Sciences Institute at The Australian National University. His current research focuses on developing a synthetic theory of (extended) Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs), as evidenced by his ongoing project funded from 2023 to 2029. He holds a PhD and has dedicated his career to advancing foundational areas of mathematics.

Research Interests: His work bridges algebraic topology, category theory, and mathematical physics, with a particular emphasis on higher categorical structures and their applications to quantum field theories. He explores synthetic approaches to TQFTs, aiming to unify abstract categorical frameworks with physical interpretations.

Grants:

• Project: 'Towards a synthetic theory of (extended) TQFT' (2023–2029)

Labs/Teams: While no specific labs are mentioned, his research aligns with ANU's theoretical mathematics and mathematical physics groups.
