I am always looking for highly motivated PhD applicants with a strong mathematical background and a deep curiosity for theoretical computer science, particularly in the areas of differential privacy and randomized numerical linear algebra. Ideal candidates should have a solid foundation in probability theory, linear algebra, and theoretical aspects of computer science, along with an interest in developing rigorous mathematical frameworks and efficient algorithms for privacy-preserving computation and large-scale numerical problems.Â
I will post some challenge questions here. If you answer any of them successfully, send it to me. It is a sure way to get my attention.
