Mathematician interested mainly in geometry, topology, analysis and physics
It's been a while but I'm still very grateful to have been invited to give a mini-course on Lagrangian mean curvature flow at ICTS Bengaluru for a programme on Geometry and Analysis of Minimal Surfaces. A great mathematical and cultural experience.
