Introduction to Higher Operads.
This is a followup to the course I taught in the spring of 2025 titled "Algebraic Operads",
which covered the basics of the classical operad theory. In this mini-course we will look
at one approach to the notion of a higher operad, which is a key tool to systematic
study of various flavors of (higher) monoidal categories.

Lecturer Intro
I have MSc degree in Applied Math / Computer Science from St. Petersburg IFMO and PhD in pure mathematics from Yale University. From 2014 to 2022 I held postdoctoral and visiting researcher positions in Japan, UK, Germany and France. I've joined BIMSA in 2023.
My current research interests include geometric representation theory, super groups and non-commutative algebraic geometry.
