Overview
Mathematics as a subject has been shaped over ages through an intricate balance of fundamental research and practical applications, resulting in the seemingly disjoint disciplines termed as “pure” and “applied” mathematics. TRIM, however, focusses on foundational research in both fundamental and applied mathematics with the aim of translating research results to tangible contributions as is necessary for the modern realm of interdisciplinary advances in science and technology so that mathematics can reinvent itself by merging the long-term foundational impact of pure mathematics with short-term insightful gains from mathematical applications. The core mission of the Translational Research Institute in Mathematics (TRIM) is to foster and facilitate this holistic symbiosis. In a nutshell, TRIM will explore the benefits of translational research in mathematics by conducting cutting edge research in Mathematics with the focus on its applications to real-world problems arising out of industry needs, social-networking problems and communication science. Potentially, it shall re-invigorate the culture of mathematical thinking at the interface of theory and practice, by fostering excellence in higher education, capacity building. It shall encourage collaborative research with leading national and international institutes and technology-based industries. The group mostly, but is not restricted to, works in the following areas of specialization.
- Functional Analysis
- Operator Algebra
- Algebraic Topology
- Low Dimensional Topology
- Contact Topology
- Knot Theory
- Topological Combinatorics
- Structural Graph Theory
- Algebraic Graph Theory
- Combinatorial and Discrete geometry
- Discrete Morse Theory
- Enumerative and algebraic combinatorics
- Matroid Theory
- (Non-) associative Algebras
- Lie algebra and Lie Groups
- Deformation theory and Homotopy algebras
- Algebraic Geometry
