Shinobu Yokoyama
Independent researcher in mathematics (Algebraic Topology)
Research Interests
My primary research interests are in homotopy theory and its foundational frameworks, including model categories, higher categorical structures, and homotopical notions of stability and coherence.

Background
Before returning to academic research, I worked in industry on mathematically oriented problems. This experience has influenced my interest in finite models, structural robustness, and explicit constructions, which continue to inform my current research.
Information on prior industry experience and applied work is available on a separate practitioner profile.
