Welcome.

My PhD candidacy in Mathematical Sciences at Portland State University is under the primary supervision of Dr. Steve Bleiler in the department of mathematics and statistics. Dr. Marek Perkowski in the department of electrical and computer engineering is my allied area advisor. My research interests are: quantum game theory, quantum algorithms, and hybrid and multi-valued quantum logic circuits. 

Some publications of mine can be found here.

Some fundamental papers on quantum game theory, quantum logic synthesis, and quantum algorithms.

In the context of my PhD, I have made some presentations which may be instructive (or not). No harm in checking them out.

I am a Maseeh Graduate Fellow at Portland State University for the academic year 2007-08. 

I am also an adjunct instructor at the University of Portland for the Fall 2007 term. 

Sufi wisdom is great source of inspiration, especially for an inspiring mathematician. Although the ends of most Sufi intellectual and spiritual endeavors has been the study of the "human condition," the convoluted thought patterns invoked in these endeavors certainly contain  germs of mathematical thinking. At least, that is my opinion. Two Sufi stories that invoke in me a sympathetic perception of reality are The Tale of the Sands and The Fruit of Heaven.


I became a TV star while developing a calculus course for the Virtual University in Pakistan. 

Here is my CV/resume.
