Postdoctoral Fellow in Mathematics

Chennai Mathematical Institute & Institute for Advanced Study

Welcome

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Chennai Mathematical Institute, working broadly in arithmetic geometry and the Langlands program. My research investigates the geometry of moduli spaces arising in number theory, with a particular focus on their cohomological and categorical properties.

Before CMI, I completed my doctoral work at IISc Bangalore under the supervision of Prof. [Advisor Name]. I have also held visiting positions at TIFR Mumbai and the Hausdorff Research Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.

I am broadly interested in fostering a welcoming mathematical community, and I co-organise the Women in Mathematics seminar series at CMI.

Research Interests

Algebraic Geometry

Moduli spaces, sheaf theory, and intersection theory over fields of characteristic p.

Number Theory

Arithmetic geometry, Galois representations, and L-functions.

Representation Theory

p-adic groups, automorphic forms, and the Langlands program.

Mathematical Physics

Connections between topological field theories and geometric structures.
