Maxi Wuttke’s Home Page 🌵

Hi, my name is Maxi Wuttke, and I use the pronouns they/them.

I’m currently a PhD student with Cătălin Hrițcu at MPI-SP in Bochum.

Before that, I studied with Deepak Garg. Even before that, I was a Bachelor student at Saarland University.

Research Interests

Broadly, I’m interested in formal logic, theory of programming languages, and security. I also enjoy proving theorems in the interactive proof assistant Coq.

Currently my research focuses on formal resource analysis and verification of probabilistic programs. To this end, I’m using Coq and F*.

Master’s thesis

I wrote my Master’s thesis under supervision of Deepak Garg.

Bachelor’s thesis

Before joining MPI-SP and MPI-SWS, I joined Saarland University to study computer science. I wrote my Bachelor’s thesis at the Programming Systems Lab lead by Prof. Smolka.
