I am actively recruiting Ph.D Students. Of particular interests to me are those who are hard working and like to be challenged intellectually. (I believe hard work is more important than technical strengths.)

On the other hand, a strong mathematical background will be very helpful. Please feel free to contact me if you have good understanding of any of the topics/books listed below:

• Cryptography.
  • Foundations of Cryptography, by Oded Goldreich.
  • Lecture Notes on Cryptography, by Shafi Goldwasser and Mihir Bellare.
  • Algorithmic Number Theory, by Eric Bach and Jeffrey Shallit.
• Game Theory.
  • A Course in Game Theory, by Martin J. Osborne and Ariel Rubinstein.
• Computational Complexity.
  • Computational Complexity, by Christos H. Papadimitriou.
• Algorithms.
  • The Art of Computer Programming, by Donald E. Knuth.
  • Randomized Algorithms, by Rajeev Motwani, Prabhakar Raghavan.
  • Approximation Algorithms, by Vijay V. Vazirani.
• Distributed Computing.
  • Distributed Algorithms, by Nancy Lynch.
