THIS WEBSITE IS NO LONGER MANTAINED, AND IT IS BEING MOVED TO https://edolana.github.io/ INSTEAD.

Welcome to my webpage, my name is Edoardo Lanari and I am a homotopy theorist/ higher category theorist from Italy. My main interests are higher structures, such as (∞, n)-categories, and homotopical methods to study them, and my first love was algebraic topology. I have completed my PhD at Macquarie University (Sydney) in 2018, under the supervision of Richard Garner and co-supervision of Dominic Verity .

I am currently employed as a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences.

My main research interests are now (∞,2)-categories and higher algebra. In the past, I worked on the homotopy theory of globular models for weak (∞, n)-categories and weak n-groupoids for 0 ≤ n ≤ ∞, and on comparisons with other available simplicial models. In addition to that, I studied weak (n, 1)-categories modeled by n-truncated quasi-categories.
