Daniel Schäppi
Research Interests
I am interested in category theory and its applications to algebraic geometry and algebraic topology. Currently my research is focused on the duality between geometric objects (schemes, group schemes, stacks) and their associated tensor categories.

Slides
I have given talks about my work at the International Category Theory conferences in 2011 and 2013. The slides are available here and here.
Notes
A precursor of the "formal theory" paper above, based on my Master's thesis, is available on the arXiv: 0911.0977 [math.CT]. One of my semester papers, written under the advice of Prof. U. Lang at ETH Zürich, forms part of arXiv: 0902.3831 [math.DG]. Finally, I wrote up a short note to prove that a symmetric monoidal category with the property that the coproduct of the unit object with itself exists and has a dual is necessarily semi-additive. This has now been incorporated in the joint paper "When coproducts are biproducts" with Richard Garner.
