I am interested in research, entrepreneurial ventures, and teaching.
Research – I am mostly interested in geometric group theory and low dimensional topology. Recently, I have been dabbling with geometric deep learning.
Teaching – I engage with school and university students via Olympiad programs and Research Projects. I am also curious about teaching and identifying talent in rural India (see more).
Entrepreneurial Venture – I love creating new businesses and working with other enterprises. We regularly work with small businesses (see more) as an incubator.
My Teachers
I have had the opportunity of learning from several outstanding teachers.
- Dr. Swadhin Pattanayak (that one afternoon on Heine Borel Theorem in first year, IoMA, Bhubaneshwar)
- Mr. Amartya Mukherjee (those graphic minutes of moving sine curves; high school days in Calcutta)
- Dr. Chris Hruska (lie bracket and parallel parking; in University of Wisconsin Milwaukee)
- Dr. Prabir Dasgupta (my father; who let points move smoothly when I was child).
My Work
