Hi! I am a PhD student in the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences, Leipzig, Germany. I graduated with a BA (Hons) from the University of Oxford in February 2024, after completing in July 2023.
I am in the Interdisciplinary Frontiers of Algebraic Geometry group of Irem Portakal and the Numerical Algebraic Geometry group of Simon Telen.
My research interests lie in algebraic geometry, especially algebraic statistics, combinatorics, and algebraic curves.
You can reach me at niharika.paul@mis.mpg.de.

1. Geometry of rational quasi-independence models as toric fiber products, with Jane Coons and Heather Harrington (submitted to Algebraic Statistics)
2. Computing phylogenetic invariants for time-reversible models: from TN93 to its submodels, with Marta Casanellas, Jennifer Garbett, Roser Homs, and Annachiara Korchmaros (submitted to the Journal of Symbolic Computation)
