Laura Maassen

Research I recently finished my PhD and my thesis "Representation categories of compact matrix quantum groups" is availible here. My research was funded by an RWTH Scholarship for Doctoral Students and I was a member of the Integrated Research Training Group (IRTG) of the SFB TRR 195 Symbolic Tools in Mathematics and their Application.
