Welcome

I'm a postdoc (Akademischer Rat auf Zeit) at the chair of theoretical computer science at the FAU (University of Erlangen and Nuremberg). Previously, I was a postdoc at the Software Science group at the Radboud University in the Netherlands, a guest researcher at the National Institute of Informatics in Japan, and during a research scholarship at the Australian National University, Canberra, Australia.

My research interests include algorithms powered by category theory, automata learning, and interactive theorem proving (in Agda).

Highlights & News

Software Projects

More software can be found on my github page.

  • herbstluftwm (github page): a manual tiling window manager for unix-related operating systems. If you have any questions or comments on it, then feel free to join #herbstluftwm on the libera irc network (more information on herbstluftwm.org). There is also a panel: barpyrus.

  • CoPaR: A generic minimization tool for coalgebras, in particular for deterministic automata, markov chains, labelled transition systems, Segala systems, and weighted tree automata -- written in haskell. It implements the algorithm from this concur special issue paper and CoPaR itself is presented in this Formal Methods 2019 paper (awarded the Best Theory Paper Award).

  • caligraph: a terminal-ui calendar application, written in haskell, currently supporting only remind calendars.

  • train shunting puzzles: Web application for solving train shunting puzzles, written in the purely functional language elm (source code).
