Reseach Area : • Optimization and Statistical Techniques, • Differential Geometry & Analysis • Mathematical Pedagogy, • Use of Computer Aided Tools and Mathematical Software in Mathematics. Publications: (peer reviewed) so far : 1
Conference proceedings/papers : 6 Seminars /Lectures/ Or ations delivered : 30 Post graduate Thesis supervision during 2012-13: 01 Highlights of research work done and its impart (maximum two singlespaced pages with figures/diagrams etc.): My current area of interest is in the fled of Optimization Techniques, Statistical Techniques, Numerical Method and Mathematical Pedagogy. Although my doctoral thesis was in the area of Differential Geometry, I have not been able to work further in this area due to the nature of my current teaching assignments. However, this has provided me opportunity to developed newer interests. I plan to continue to focus these areas and get deeply involved. I also have significant experiences in using mathematical software and programming languages which are very important especially in these areas of mathematics. I wish to explore the water resources management programmes where optimization and statistical techniques such as stochastic optimization, and distribution free techniques etc. can play a significance role. I believe not much has been done in India in this area and there is a lot of scope, especially when the county is facing a lot of challenges. Mathematical software have potential to facilitate an active approach to learning, to allow students to become involved in discovery and to consolidate their own knowledge, thus developing conceptual and geometrical understanding and a deeper approach to learning. Emergence of such mathematical tools and its ability to deal with most of the undergraduate mathematics cannot be ignored by mathematics educators. While use of computer technologies in many countries in teaching and learning mathematics have made a significant impact at all levels, use of such tools in mathematics teaching at all levels is in its infancy in India. So much so, that many mathematics teachers are not even aware of existence of such tools. My aim is to create awareness about innovative use of Mathematical Software among mathematics teachers across the country. I also wish to create a pool of teachers who can create innovative teaching modules, constantly regular update mathematics teachers knowledge and work as catalyst. We can also create an institution which can take care teachers training programme at all level and use of (Information and communication Technology) ICT will be in its forefront. I have been involved with the Mathematics Training and Talent Search (MTTS) programme for last several years in the various capacities. I believe that this programme has benefited a lot of students including me and has made a significant impact on mathematical science in India.
