I was the technical program chair for STOC 2022, see the call for papers!
The conference was in Rome, on June 20-24, 2022. Stefano Leonardi was the general chair.

Theory@CMU: The theory group and the ACO program

Upcoming theory seminars   ACO seminars   Theory Lunches at Carnegie Mellon

Most of my publications

A few of my talks

Some advice on giving technical talks.

Draft lecture notes for my Graduate Advanced Algorithms course.

My research interests are in Theoretical Computer Science, with an emphasis on Algorithms.
Specifically: Algorithms for Uncertain Environments (particularly approximation algorithms for stochastic problems, and online algorithms),
Approximation Algorithms and Metric Embeddings.

My work has been supported by several grants from the NSF (including a CAREER Award),
and an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship.

I was an organizer of the Algorithms and Uncertainty program at the Simons Institute in 2016,
and also an organizer of the Joint Indo-US Networked Center for Algorithms under Uncertainty.

Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley, 2000
B.Tech., Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, 1996
