Active Research Groups

CIMS has several active work groups. Each work group aims to tackle problems in that area of mathematical science. Ideally multiple project leaders and researchers can be involved in a work-group. You join as a Research Associate, Reader or Investigator in any of these groups. Apply here
Mathematics

Geometric Group Theory

Geometric Group Theory is at the confluence of topology and group theory. The team at Cheentan Research studies relative hyperbolicity, topology at boundaries and allied topics.

Medical AI

Cataract Detection using Medical AI

A research group in CIMS is working toward development of machine learning models to detect cataract and other eye related ailments in collaboration of a rural eye hospital in India.
Mathematics Education

Research in Mathematics Learning

Mathematics education research groups is interested in developing tools for pedagogy at the pre-college level and practices such as Math circles.

Reading Courses

CIMS conducts research related reading courses on frontiers of mathematical sciences. Students are invited to join these reading courses for research engagement.

Group theoretic Dehn fillings

Group theoretic Dehn fillings are constructed by Osin and Groves-Manning around 2007-08. This concept has been used in the proof of a variety of problems including that of the Virtual Haken Conjecture. In this mini course we will explore the construction and the current state of knowledge on this topic.
Speaker: Dr. Ashani Dasgupta 
Schedule: 5th December 2022 - 5 July 2023
Geometric Group Theory Research Track

Discrete dynamical system

This mini course explores discrete dynamical systems.
Speaker: Dr. Sankhadip Chakraborty
Schedule: 28th November 2022 - 28th May 2023
Dynamical Systems Research Track

Group action on spaces 

This mini course explores the action of groups on spaces. In particular we consider group actions on trees, covering space actions, Bass Serre Theory and convergence actions.
Speaker: Dr. Ashani Dasgupta 
Schedule: 1st April 2022 - 30th November 2022
Geometric Group Theory Research Track
Cheentan Institute of Mathematical Science is a non-profit organisation engaged in research and communication of mathematical sciences. We use collaborations with industry and academia to explore frontiers of pure and applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, quantum computing.
