Showing changes from revision #5 to #6: Added | Removed | Changed

I am a mathematical physicist/mathematician from Zagreb. My Ph.D. is from University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2002. My thesis title was Coset spaces for quantum groups. Here is an abstract. My mathematical interests include geometric aspects of mathematical physics (TQFT, geometric quantization, coherent states etc.), noncommutative algebraic geometry and noncommutative localization, Hopf algebras, categories, cohomology, in particular nonabelian cohomology/descent theory.

My other scientific interests include historical linguistics (general principles and Indo-European), interface between language and computation (computational linguistics, construction of compilers and computer language design), and medical herbs (herbal tea) but all these past hobbies are latent now for a long time. My native tongue is the kajkavian dialect of Croatian. In Croatian we use diacritics for the sch-sound: Škoda.
