Owen Lynch
I am a master’s student at Universiteit Utrecht, working on a thesis about compositional thermodynamics advised by John Baez and Wioletta Ruszel.
I am also a member of Algebraic Julia, working on ACSets and Semagrams.jl.
Broadly speaking, I am interested in two topics.
- Understanding models of complex systems from a compositional and coarse-graining perspective. “Compositional” means that you should be able to take two models and glue them together easily. “Coarse-graining” means that you should be able to take a complicated model and simplify it, and then relate the two systems to see that you haven’t lost “that much” information.
- Making UI for math. By this I mean drawing pictures and making software, and also making software that draws pictures.
