"The dog scratched and scratched but it was no use."
About MeI am an associate professor in the Computer Science Department of Columbia University, where I do research in theoretical computer science. My main research area is computational learning theory, but I also have strong interests in computational complexity theory, quantum computation, randomized algorithms, computational biology, cryptography, and combinatorics.PapersOffice HoursSpring 2008 semester: Academic office hours Thurs 9:20-11:20. MS Foundations Track advising office hours Thurs 12-1 (send me email 24 hours in advance if you will be coming to advising office hours).Current and Recent TeachingSpring 08: COMS 4236: Introduction to Computational Complexity
