Hi, I am a third year EPSRC funded PhD candidate in the School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds, supervised by Professor Paul Martin and Professor Frank Nijhoff. I am also currently an organiser for the Pure PGR Seminar.
Broadly speaking, I am interested in algebraic, representation theoretic, and combinatorial aspects of mathematical physics. Currently, my research concerns the representation theory of diagram algebras/categories, and their applications in low-dimensional topology. In the future I hope to investigate applications thereof in statistical mechanics and topological quantum systems.
Previously, I have studied integrability (mostly solvability in lattice models) through the lense of the Yang-Baxter equation and related algebraic structures such as quantum groups. During this I developed a fondness for special functions :).
I completed a BSc (with first class honours) at the Australian National University in December 2021. My honours thesis was supervised by Professor Vladimir Mangazeev.
