Research Interests

My current research interests focus on the theoretical aspects of computing:

Theory of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs): Exploring connections between GNN models and mathematical problems like distance geometry.
Graph Algorithms: Designing theoretical algorithms for graph metrics.
Graph Algorithm Alignment: Understanding what theoretical complexity classes distributed models can solve.
