Russian War and Invasion of Ukraine
The truth shall win over the evil of russia's genocide of the peaceful Ukraine, but the cost of human life that civilian Ukrainians will pay for this is going to be incredibly high. You may support UKRAINIAN ARMY at savelife.in.ua

Research Interests
My research interests are in Representation Theory (particularly, in Cherednik algebras, quantum affine and
toroidal algebras, shuffle algebras, shifted quantum affine algebras and Yangians) and its connection to Algebraic Geometry
(via Laumon spaces, Nakajima quiver varieties, Coulomb branches) and Integrable Systems
(the Toda-like integrable systems and the quantum inverse scattering method)
My research has been supported by NSF Grants No. DMS-1502497 (changed to DMS-1821185), DMS-2001247 (changed to DMS-2037602), and DMS-2302661

Representation Theory (electronic) 17 (2013), 557‒583 (journal) (arXiv)
MIT PRIMES is a year-long after-school research program for high school students from the Boston area. Program participants work with MIT researchers on exciting unsolved problems in mathematics, computer science, and computational biology.
