Personal

 

I like taking pictures

I studied Math In Moscow at the Independent University of Moscow; here are views of Moscow State University (that's where I lived) in the winter: flash, no flash; and in the spring.

 

 

 

I`m the TA for Sergei Tabachnikov`s MASS course on Polynomials. Here is the Mathematica notebook that we use in recitation.
