## my position

I am researcher in the department Algebra, Geometry and Mathematical Physics of the Institute of Mathematics at the Czech Academy of the Sciences (CAS) in Prague.

Presently I am on leave at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.

## my research

My research is about mathematical theory building in theoretical fundamental physics. With Hisham Sati we have edited a survey book that should give a good sense of modern insights into the general abstract structure of the world:

I am writing a monograph about a modern approach to this subject:

An exposition and survey of this is here:

## teaching

In spring 2015 I was teaching a seminar on

A list of notes prepared for seminars that I taught in the past is here

## publications, talks, and students

A personal wiki with more information on my research, talks, students, teaching and other activity is here:

See specifically:

## $n$Lab

I like to put information into context. For that purpose I had started the

in November 2008. It has now more than 11,000 pages (some very short, but some very long). In May 2015 the $n$Lab installation migrated from a server paid out of my pocket to a server hosted at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, funded by Steve Awodey’s MURI grant for homotopy type theory research.

## column

I am writing an irregular column at PhysicsForums. Recent articles in the series include these:
