Rashid Talha

I am a graduate student in the Mathematics Section of the Postgraduate Diploma Programme at ICTP in Trieste, Italy. More information about my academic background can be found in my CV.

My research interests span mathematics and theoretical physics, with a particular focus on differential geometry and its applications to gravitational physics, black holes, and quantum gravity. I am currently working on special holonomy and the geometry of G₂ manifolds.

Further details on some of my research projects are available here.

Previous Studies:

I completed my undergraduate studies in Mathematics at NUST in Islamabad, Pakistan, under the supervision of Dr. Tooba Feroze. I graduated with the President's Gold Medal (highest-ranking student) and the Rector's Gold Medal (best final-year project).

Coding:

I maintain an open-source repository of custom LaTeX class and header files that I regularly use in my work.

I have also collaborated with Dr. Asif Farooq on interdisciplinary projects, applying machine learning and numerical methods to address real-world mathematical modelling problems.
