معرفی
Lukas Woike is a Junior Professor at the Institute of Mathematics of Burgundy (Université Bourgogne Europe), affiliated with the research groups "Geometry, Algebra, Dynamics and Topology" and "Mathematical Physics". His work intersects algebra, topology, and mathematical physics, focusing on topological field theories and higher algebraic structures.
- Education: PhD from the University of Hamburg under Christoph Schweigert
- Past Positions: Postdoc at the University of Copenhagen (2020-2022), supported by a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship
His research explores non-semisimple modular functors, topological field theories, factorization homology, and higher algebraic structures in homological algebra. He has contributed to understanding the Deligne conjecture for finite tensor categories and developed differential graded generalizations of modular functors.
Notable scientific awards include the Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship. With Adrien Brochier, Renaud Detcherry, and Emmanuel Wagner, he organizes the Quantum Topology Days seminar. He is also co-authoring a textbook titled "A first course in topological field theory" for the American Mathematical Society.
