A quote from legendary geometric analyst - Sergiu Klainerman [Princeton]
A man's mind grows narrow in a narrow place, whose mind is enlarged only because he has lived in a large place: but what is got by books and thinking is preserved in a narrow place as well as in a large place. A man cannot know modes of life as well in [Princeton] as in London; but he may study mathematics as well in [Princeton]."
Samuel Johnson
Social Responsibility
In month of June, I spread headed a fund raiser raising an amount worth '1535" USD (~130000 INR) for Ms. Sparsh Bhojak - a teenage girl of same age as mine towards her treatment of Acute liver failure. My efforts were lauded by Scientists in India & abroad including Prof. Muna Naik at IISc Bengalure, Prof. Arun Pati (India's pioneering quantum scientist), Prof. Om Jee IIT, Prof. Krishnasamy Arasu - senior scientist at riverside research institute). Here is the LinkedIn post at my profile where I have uploaded details about this fundraiser.
Teaching - Abstract Algebra & Fundamentals of Mathematics.
While giving a gift of Two Books to each of 8 students of Tribal School in Maharashtra, I & parth purchased these books from our pocket money which we had saved in last 1 year.
With the teachers of the same Tribal School where I am teaching them Euclidean Geometry
Discussing a problem of the triangle with these tribal students, June/2/2024.
I am currently doing teachings of -
Abstract algebra leading to "impossibility theorem of Abel" and formulating topological version of the same from the celebrated work of legendary mathematician and ICM speaker - Prof. Askold Khovanskii, a protege of our mathematical hero V I Arnold - the inspiration for us all in the AMMOC family.
Fundamentals of Euclidean Geometry to underprivileged students in Maharashtra. This teaching is inspired by a letter written by legendary mathematician and mathematical physicist Barry Simon of the Caltech - "a plea in the defense of Euclidean Geometry"
PS - I will upload my notes for most of my teaching gradually towards the end of October. I am currently typesetting them in LaTeX.
