- Profile
-
Dr. Sagnik Mukhopadhyay completed his Ph.D. from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, India in 2017. After finishing his Ph.D., he has spent 4 years at Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden, 6 months at Charles University, Czech Republic, and 6 months at Basic Algorithm Research Copenhagen (BARC) at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark as a post-doctoral researcher. From January 2022, Dr. Mukhopadhyay is a Lecturer in Algorithms at the Department of Computer Science.
- Research interests
-
Dr. Sagnik Mukhopadhyay's primary research areas are complexity theory (mainly communication complexity) and graph algorithms. In particular, his research focuses on investigating network problems through the lens of distributed systems, such as query, streaming, two-party communication, and distributed computational models. He designs efficient algorithms and/or proves the hardness of designing such algorithms for network problems in distributed computation. This area of research falls under the overarching umbrella of theoretical computer science.
