Areas of Interest

• Number Theory: Additive Number Theory (Additive Combinatorics), Combinatorial Number Theory


Additive Number Theory, also known as Additive Combinatorics is an active and rapidly developing field of research which is a branch of Number Theory concerning the study of theory of set addition in which the subsets of integers and their behavior under the algebraic operations such as addition and multiplication are studied. More generally, additive number theory includes the study of additive structures of  subsets of (abelian) groups. It has strong interaction with other branches of number theory, combinatorics, group theory, linear algebra, analysis, and many more.
