Kasturi Barkataki


I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Edinburgh under Prof. Davide Michieletto. I received my PhD in Mathematics from Arizona State University under the supervision of Prof. Eleni Panagiotou. 


My research interests lie in knot theory and its connections with geometry, combinatorics, statistical mechanics, and machine learning. I am particularly interested in characterizing topological entanglement in physical systems and understanding the role of topology in governing their behaviour.
