Hi there! My name is Max Lahn (they/them). I also go by Maxie. Starting this Fall, I will be an RTG postdoctoral trainee in the Geometry, Group Actions, and Dynamics group at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, working under Andy Zimmer and Marissa Loving. Broadly speaking, my research interests include higher rank Teichmüller* theory, Anosov representations, and length spectra of hyperbolic surfaces.

I grew up in a small suburb in New York state, but I've also lived in Providence, Rhode Island, where I graduated in the Spring of 2019 with an ScB in Mathematics from Brown University, and in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where I graduated in the Spring of 2023 and the Summer of 2025 with an MS and a PhD in Mathematics, respectively, from the University of Michigan. I currently live in Madison, Wisconsin. Here is an incomplete list of things I like and/or am interested in, in no particular order:
