I am a PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Manas Kulkarni. The focus of my doctoral research is on Quantum Many-Body Dynamics with particular emphasis on understanding the dynamics of entanglement in integrable models and monitored quantum systems. My work involves analysing entanglement dynamics and exploring the relationship between entanglement growth and transport properties in quantum many-body systems employing various techniques like Quantum Trajectories, Hydrodynamics, etc.

Another major direction of my research is in Open Quantum Systems, specifically Lindblad systems with localized sources and dephasing. In these settings, I study spectral properties, full counting statistics, dynamics of observables, dynamical phase transitions, etc.
