Personal Interests
At a high level, Willie is mainly interested in applying mathematical theory to the solution of real world problems. His theoretical interests are wide-ranging and he is also interested in practical implementations.
Willie's current research focuses on Topological Quantum Computing (TQC). In particular, he studies the algebraic structure of the categories modeling the anyon systems required for the realization of TQC.
