VENKiTESH

I am a post-doctoral fellow at the Dept. of Computer Science, University of Haifa, mentored by Noga Ron-Zewi.  Previously, I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Bombay, mentored by Mrinal Kumar.  I completed my Ph.D. at the Dept. of Mathematics, IIT Bombay, advised by Srikanth Srinivasan.

Research Interests:  Theoretical Computer Science and Combinatorics

Current Research Areas:  Coding theory and decoding algorithms, algebraic methods in combinat Boolean function and circuit complexity.

Ph.D. Research:  I defended my Ph.D. thesis, titled On Probabilistic Representations of Boolean Functions, and Closure Operators over the Boolean Cube, via Polynomials, at the Dept. of Mathematics, IIT Bombay, in April 2022.  A draft version of the thesis can be found here.

If you wish to chat with me about my research, or more generally problems in TCS and combinatorics, feel free to mail me.
