Lukas Brantner

Lukas Brantner is a Junior Research Fellow in Mathematics at the University of Oxford, specifically associated with Merton College. He holds the title of Royal Society University Research Fellow and has a strong academic background in advanced mathematical concepts. His research interests primarily focus on derived algebraic geometry, chromatic homotopy theory, and combinatorial topology. He has also explored topics such as abelian, non-abelian, and $$p$$-adic Hodge theory.

Brantner completed his PhD at Harvard University under the supervision of Jacob Lurie in 2017, with a dissertation titled "The Lubin-Tate Theory of Spectral Lie Algebras" .12 Prior to his current role at Oxford, he was involved in research related to geometric group theory with Danny Calegari. His teaching experience includes courses on $$\infty$$-Categories and Deformation Theory .1

In addition to his academic work, Brantner is active in the mathematical community and contributes to various research projects that investigate the deformation of Calabi-Yau varieties and their applications in characteristic $$p$$ using derived algebraic geometry techniques .1
