I’m a senior interesting in complexity theory and related fields, but especially interactive proof systems. I am currently working on streaming algorithms in an interactive proof systems setting. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about complexity theory or TCS in general!
Co-President
Hello! My name is Toby and I'm a computer science and mathematics major, broadly interested in algorithms. I am currently working on algorithms for predicting smooth functions in an online setting. I hope to see you all at this club during the upcoming semester!

My name’s August, and I’m a Computer Science and Pure Math dual degree student! I’m interested in Information Theory, Algorithms and Finite group theory. I’m from Bangalore, India and Austin, Texas. I love playing chess, learning about math and rock climbing. I also have 2 huskies. I’ll see you in the Fall:)
Officer
I’m a PhD student at Simon Fraser University studying computational complexity theory and logic. Previously, I was an undergraduate and master’s student at UMass where I helped start and run the Theory Club. I plan to continue contributing to the club remotely for a while.
Alumni
Aaron Tian’s work centers on the design and analysis of fast, scalable algorithms for modern data science and machine learning. His current research is in randomized numerical linear algebra, where he studies efficient algorithms for large-scale matrix problems. He is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
