I am working as a Postdoctoral Researcher under the mentorship of Prof. Axel Flinth, at the Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, Umeå University. Prior to joining Umeå University, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Namur Institute for Complex Systems (naXys) and Department of Mathematics, University of Namur, Belgium, with Prof. Alexandre Mauroy from 2022 to 2024. I received my Ph.D. degree in Approximation Theory from the Department of Mathematics, Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology Surat, Gujarat, India in 2021 under the guidance of Late Prof. Vishnu Narayan Mishra and Prof. Ramakanta Meher.
My research primarily lies in the intersection of Approximation Theory, Dynamical Systems, and Koopman Operator Theory, while my current work is more oriented toward Optimization Theory.
An Overview of Current Research: My current research focuses on developing a new theory for fully corrective Frank-Wolfe algorithms for convex optimization on measure spaces. My primary motives are to develop and analyze new, tailor-made algorithms for individual, discretized problems along with homotopy approach and further generalize the framework to a stochastic setting.
I will be attending "Scientific Machine Learning and Numerical Methods – Autumn school on 27-31 October 2025", at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI), Netherlands.
I will be attending "ACOTCA 2025 : XIX Advanced Course in Operator Theory and Complex Analysis", at Université Clermont Auvergne in Clermont-Ferrand (France) from 16-20 June 2025.
