Abhra Abir Kundu

I am currently a NetMath Instructor at University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.  I received my Ph.D. at University Of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign working under the guidance of Prof. Charles Rezk. 

Research Interests:

My mathematical interests lie in Algebraic Topology, in particular, stable homotopy theory. I am also interested in Higher Category Theory. My current research is in synthetic spectra, more specifically, HF_p based synthetic spectra. 

Here's a very brief overview of my research so far and my current program : 

Preprints:

1. Chromatic homotopy theory in HF_p based synthetic spectra. Draft.

2. Synthetic Localizations and fp spectra. In preparation.

Education:

Ph.D., University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, 2025.

M.Math, Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore, 2017.

B.Math(Hons.), Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore, 2015.

Awards and Honors:

Departmental T.A. Instructional Award(UIUC), 2023.

S.H. Aravind Gold Medal (Indian Statistical Institute), 2016.

Other Interests:

Before realizing the significance of infinity categories, I used to have some free time every now and then....here's what I did during those times!
