Jarl G. Taxerås Flaten

Starting August 2023, I will be a researcher at SINTEF Nord in Tromsø, Norway.

I received my Ph.D. from the University of Western Ontario under the supervision of Dan Christensen. My mathematical research interests relate to homotopy type theory, higher topos theory, and algebraic topology. I am also interested in formal verification, and I contribute to the Coq-HoTT library.

Previously, I studied at NTNU (MSc) and at EPFL (BSc).
