Hello everyone!

I’m Nikita, a PhD student at MIT, fortunate to work under the guidance of Professor Yury Polyanskiy. Coming from a mathematical background, I am interested in uncovering the fundamental reasons underlying success of modern AI models. My current research is focused on theoretical properties of transformers.

With a long history of competing in mathematical olympiads, I’m thrilled by recent breakthroughs in AI reasoning, such as those from DeepMind and OpenAI, and I would love to see this field develop further.
