Anssi Löfman

Anssi Löfman is a Finnish computer scientist specializing in type theory and functional programming. He is known for his work on implementing and extending dependent type theories, particularly the Agda programming language. Löfman has contributed significantly to the development of Agda's type system, its core language, and its standard library. He has also published research on topics such as inductive-recursive definitions, well-typed term traversal, and efficient compilation of dependently typed languages. Löfman has been affiliated with Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, where much of the Agda development has taken place. His work is influential in both theoretical computer science and the practical application of advanced type systems in software development.
