My primary area of interest is algorithms and in specific are approximation algorithms, combinatorial optimization, randomized algorithms, exponential time algorithms. I have interest in the locality aspects of distributed algorithms. I am also interested in various algorithmic problems arising in designing sensor networks, like power assignment, greedy routing, secure data aggregation, and security issues in ad-hoc and sensor networks. My current research interests include information propagation on social networks, text analysis, and predictive modelling.
