Keller received in 1990 his PhD from the University of Zurich under Pierre Gabriel with the thesis On Derived Categories. [1]
His research is in homological algebra and the representation theory of quivers and finite-dimensional algebras. He has applied triangulated Calabi–Yau categories to the (additive) categorification of cluster algebras. In 2013, he received an honorary degree [2] from the University of Antwerp. In 2014 he received the Sophie Germain Prize. He was an Invited Speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid in 2006, [3] with a talk On differential graded categories.
