Current Research

Nicolai Kraus works on topics in the intersection of mathematics and computer science. His project funded by the Royal Society aims to connect two fields, namely the theories of higher-dimensional categories (very general tools to structure mathematical data) and dependent type theories (certain functional programming languages with built-in correctness proofs).
