Welcome
I am a Quantitative Research Intern at Jane Street and a PhD candidate in Theoretical Physics at ETH Zürich.
I was born in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, the capital of Sakhalin Island in Russia's far east, and grew up between there and St Petersburg, where I earned my Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics and Physics from St Petersburg State University. Drawn to theoretical physics, I moved to Zürich, Switzerland, for a Master's at ETH Zürich and started a PhD programme at its Institute for Theoretical Physics, working on the mathematical foundations of fundamental physics. I've since made the leap from academia to finance, and I now work as a quantitative researcher intern at Jane Street in London, UK.
Theoretical Physics
Quantum Field Theory, String Theory, AdS/CFT Correspondence, Integrability, Quantum Groups, Scattering Amplitudes, Riemann Surfaces, Polylogarithms.
Hobbies
Software development, automation, machine learning, playing the guitar and drums, SUP.
Projects
AMT lets you efficiently manage articles, books, lecture notes, etc. for scientific writing and compactly store bibliography metadata.
Features
Store research references · open entries in an external app · search within references · previews · pull metadata & PDFs from arxiv.org · search arXiv and add articles directly. Work in progress — more to come.
A Python package that numerically implements Schottky uniformization for Riemann surfaces, focusing on evaluating higher-genus polylogarithm functions.
Attribution
Developed as part of the work on arXiv:2406.10051 and arXiv:2409.08208. It will be made publicly available on my GitHub in future.
A curved-space simulator that lets you visualize and travel through hyperbolic and spherical 3-dimensional spaces. The first version was created 20 years ago by Niklas Beisert; the new version adds more efficient rendering via parallel processing and a friendlier interface. Built as an exhibition stand for "Nacht der Physik 2022" in Zürich.
