Statement on Research and Training

Other Interests

  • Mathematics: Since my graduate studies I chose to do mathematics.In addition to my working in mathematical systems theory, theoretical computer science and related areas such as coding theory, econometrics etc., I teach mathematics to high school children. I am always interested in the following question: ``Why don't students enjoy and appreciate mathematics as much as we might hope?''
  • Science Education: I write articles along with my students to Resonance, a publication of the Indian Academy of Sciences, on emerging techniques and ideas and innovative procedures for teaching specific concepts.
  • Music: I am an exponent of South Indian classical music. I am currently looking after the Carnatic Music Club of NITT called Amruthavarshini
  • Reading: These days I read science non-fiction (e.g. Roger Penrose, Sept. 11: A Wake Up Call, A Beautiful Mind), philosophy & religion, and books/articles on fine arts, particularly classical music and dance.
  • Travel: I enjoy travel and I have covered most parts of India.
