Atul Dixit

Associate Professor of Mathematics

I am primarily interested in Special Functions, Analytic number theory, q-series and the Theory of Partitions. I like to work in the areas of Mathematics developed by Srinivasa Ramanujan. Here is my Curriculum Vitae.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

I recently got elected as a member of the Indian National Young Academy of Sciences (INYAS) for a period of five years (2021-2025).

Journals for which I am an editor:

I am co-organizing the Special Functions and Number Theory seminar with Gaurav Bhatnagar (JNU & Ashoka Univ.) and Krishnan Rajkumar (JNU).

RESEARCH INTERESTS

 

Analytic Number Theory, Special Functions, Theory of Partitions, q-series and Modular Forms fascinate me. Over the years, my research has been diversified as a result of working on problems on reciprocal and self-reciprocal functions, zeros of certain L-functions in Analytic Number Theory and identities in basic hypergeometric series with applications to the Theory of Partitions.
