Welcome to the webpage of Santhanam.
He is on the faculty of physics at Indian Institute
of Science Education and Research, Pune, India.
Research interests broadly cover the areas of chaos and nonlinear dynamics, quantum chaos,
quantum computation and machine learning, statistical physics, complex networks, extreme events and
complex systems. Specifically, the problems range
from driven quantum systems and random matrix theory to random walks and extreme events
on networks and data science.
