معرفی
Dr. Jonathan Lorand is a Lecturer at the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering at ETH Zürich, where he teaches Applied Category Theory for Engineering I and II. He is affiliated with the Frazzoli Group at the Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control, focusing on systemic thinking through category theory and its applications in engineering and interdisciplinary domains.
- Lecturer at ETH Zürich
- Affiliated with Frazzoli Group
- Co-author of a textbook on applied category theory
- Member of CODEWIND and Demos Institute boards
Research Interests
His work bridges applied category theory with practical systems modeling and optimization. Key areas include monotone co-design theory for engineering systems, duality involutions in categorical frameworks, and geometric representation theory. He has contributed to understanding isotropic structures in symplectic and Poisson geometry, as well as categorification techniques for negative information and resource management.
Publications & Collaboration
His publications span pure and applied mathematics, including work with collaborators like Andrea Censi, Eugene Frazzoli, and Alan Weinstein. He is co-developing a textbook and learning resources for practitioners in applied category theory.
