Biographic Sketch:
Dr A. Chandrashekaran, Associate Professor of Mathematics at the School of Mathematics and Computer Sciences, Central University of Tamil Nadu (CUTN), Thiruvarur. He received his PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, Chennai, in 2010, followed by a DST Research Associateship at the C. R. Rao Advanced Institute of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Sciences, Hyderabad. He received his BSc and MSc in Mathematics from Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai, in 2002 and 2004, respectively. He completed his school education in Thiruthangal, his native place. He was awarded a National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM) fellowship for both his MSc and PhD studies. Furthermore, he secured CSIR Junior and Senior Research Fellowships to support his doctoral studies. He was a proud alumnus of the Mathematics Training and Talent Search (MTTS) programme held in 2002. Since 2013, he has contributed to MTTS as a resident faculty member for various programs organized across India. His research work involves addressing problems that arise from Mathematical Optimisation, Game theory, and related areas. His other interests include open-source software packages, particularly Moodle, Koha, and SageMath. He has installed and customized MOODLE for CUTN (https://courses.cutn.ac.in) and MTTS Classrooms (https://classroom.mtts.org.in). He has also customized and installed KOHA for the Chozha Central Library of CUTN (https://library.cutn.ac.in).

   
Research Highlights :

Dr A Chandrashekaran’s current research focuses on studying the cones that arise in optimization and the linear maps that act on them. He has published 16 research articles. His recent contributions are about the structure and the Lyapunov rank of proper cones. He has also completed two research projects from SERB.
