Florian Dorsch is a mathematician who completed his undergraduate and master’s studies in mathematics at the University of Göttingen (Germany), where he is currently pursuing his PhD. His research focuses on the differentiation of simplicial manifolds and shifted symplectic structures within the framework of higher Lie theory. Under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Chenchang Zhu, Florian is developing new theoretical tools in graded geometry and derived algebraic structures, combining advanced techniques from topology, geometry, and mathematical physics. He is currently undertaking a research stay at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) in Barcelona as part of the International Programme for Research in Groups (IP4RG).
