Rahul Dalal

I am currently working at Succinct building zero-knowledge/succinct proof systems and hopefully exploring if there are useful connections to some of my pure-math work through constructions of expander complexes. Previously I was a postdoc with Alberto Minguez at the University of Vienna and an NSF postdoc at Johns Hopkins sponsored by Yiannis Sakellaridis. My academic math interests are in automorphic representations and the trace formula.

My Ph.D. was from UC Berkeley advised by Sug Woo Shin. Before that, I was an undergraduate at Harvard University.
