My name is Shivika Narang (pronounced Shi-vi-kaa Naa-rung) and I am a postdoc at UNSW working with Haris Aziz and Toby Walsh, since March 2024. During Fall 2023, I was a postdoc at MSRI/SLMath in the Algorithms, Fairness and Equity program. My current work is focused on fairness and efficiency in computational social choice, especially matching and allocation problems.
I did my PhD at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru. There, I was a member of the Game Theory Lab and a recipient of the Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Research Scholarship. I was advised by Prof Y Narahari. I am broadly interested in Algorithmic Game Theory and Approximation Algorithms. My PhD thesis is titled Algorithms for Achieving Fairness and Efficiency in Matching Problems.
