I am a student in the Department of Theoretical Physics (DTP) in Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR)

I did my BSc.(Hons.) in Physics from Chennai Mathematical Institute (CMI)

My undergraduate home page was this.
Some of the particular aspects of my undergraduate pursuits can be found in these specific pages

1.Physics and Geometry seminars and talks given
2. Summer and winter vacation activities
3. Some writings in geometry during my undergrad:
   a)Basis for a topological space
   b)Connections on Riemannian Manifolds
4. Some art work
   a)An old pillar and a tree in water. ( with black ink and metal tipped "crow quill" pen )
   b)A face. (with oil-paint )
   c) Some pastel drawings
   d)Some photographs I took


Some articles that I have recently written are as follows

7. An analysis of mine on the Hall Effect

6. A report on an experiment I did of doing electrophoresis with proteins

5. A possibly interesting Hamiltonian

4. Decomposition of Linear Transformation
   (A detailed explanation for Jordan Canonical Forms starting from the basics)

3. Lifting of maps in topological spaces
   (A detailed explanation of path lifting theorems for covering spaces and locally trivial bundles
    starting from similar ideas on simpler structures)

2. Elementary concepts about topological spaces
   (A survey of interconnections between the properties of Hausdorffness, Connectedness and Compactness)

1.A brief write-up on stellar equilibrium and Chandrashekhar's Limit



Off-late I have registered at this community called MathOverflow and have been participating in its proceedings.
This is my home-page at MathOverflow
The whole idea and the intensity of the interaction here looks very promising.



Slides and notes from my recent presentations,
5. A seminar on reionization cosmology
4. A presentation on electrophoresis of proteins
3. Review of a paper in atomic physics
2. Talk on astronomical reference frames
1. Talk on the Pound and Rebka experiment



Till about an year and a half ago, I was avidly into composing poetry but since then all these pursuitshave been stopped. Two of my writings from those days are here.

Since as far back as I can remember till my Class 10 I used to spend a large fraction of my time drawing, painting (pastel, charcoal, water colours and oil-painting (self-taught)), writing poems and drama scripts and it has been fading over the years and during the last 2 years as a consequence of need of exponentially increasing professional commitment all such softer pursuits have been stopped.

Organized non-academic work that I do these days is basically reading some economics (the subject continues to fascinate me especially Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen's books ) and writing in these 2 blogs:

2. My own blog

1. This one with some of my friends (but not very active as of now)
