Prediction markets for parlays

Preprint

We show how illiquid prediction markets can be made more feasible by learning a joint distribution across multiple markets. We show why parlay-style markets are a crucial building block to achieve that.

AMMs for Decentralized Energy Communities

Preprint

We develop an axiomatic theory for AMMs in local energy sharing markets and analyze the Markov Perfect Equilibrium of the resulting economy with a Mean-Field Game

Yield tokenization and fixed rates

Published - ALGODEFI 2025 (Milan)

We show how yield tokenization can mitigate interest rate risk for lending in DeFi, design AMMs for their price discovery, and design a fixed rate lending protocol 

Adaptivity vs Robustness in DeFi lending

Preprint

We explore the tradeoff between adaptivity and robustness in automated lending protocols

Adaptive Decentralized Lending 

Published - Advances in Fin Tech 2024 (Vienna)

Adapting the interest rate and collateralization factor of a decentralized lending platform to ensure solvency and stability, using a two-timescale control algorithm

Adaptive Bonding Curves for AMMs

Published - Advances in Fin Tech 2024 (Vienna)

Using canonical control theory to derive optimally efficient adaptive bonding curves for automated market making

Data-driven AMMs in DeFi

Published - Financial Cryptography 2024 (Curacao)

Using reinforcement learning to design optimal market making schemes for Decentralized Finance

Neural Decoder for Polar codes

Published - ICML 2023 (Hawaii)

Using curriculum learning to learn near-optimal decoders for PAC and Polar codes.

Opinion shaping via Multi-armed Bandits

Senior Year Project - 2020 (IIT-Bombay)

On opinion shaping of populations in the multi-armed bandit framework

Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

RoboSub 2018 (San Diego)

Technical Design report of the Matsya 5 vehicle I worked on while at IIT-B

Nonlinear dynamics and applications

Summer 2017 (IIT-Bombay)

Fun summer project on using non-linear dynamics to model the syncing of fireflies, the spread of internet memes and love triangles
