Hello! I am Dhruv, and I am a Ph.D. candidate in pure math at Princeton. I'm broadly interested in algebraic geometry.

About Me

I did my undergraduate studies at Harvard, where I was in Lowell House. I wrote my senior thesis on applications of the Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem under the supervision of Joe Harris and Dan Freed. After that, I was at Trinity College, Cambridge, for Part III of the Mathematical Tripos. My Part III Essay was on Galois cohomology and the isogeny invariance of the strong Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture for abelian varieties, supervised by Jack Thorne. Currently, I am a PhD student in pure mathematics at Princeton, and my advisor is Ravi Vakil (yes, I know Ravi is at Stanford).

Outside of math, I like to sing, write music, read (mostly sci-fi, fantasy, and horror; most recently, non-realist theology), watch Black Mirror, and spend time with my pets.
