Below you will find links to resources for high school students as well as a description of some old projects about my work for school products.
Lodha Genius Programs
The Lodha genius programme was conceptualised by Professor VijayRaghavan. I contributed to the design of the Problem Solving Seminar in Mathematics. The summer contact programme in 2023 was open to Class 9-12 students, and ran from May 17, 2023 – June 18, 2023. A light touch programme is being designed and will be conducted in the coming year.

Resources for high school mathematics
- Of Art and Math – Ambigrams – Articles written with Punya Mishra published in At Right Angles. Actually, they cover almost every topic that everyone should know – Paradoxes, Infinity, etc.
- My book Experience Mathematics is available for download. This is suitable for students in high school and covers the parts of mathematics everyone should know. Its a problem solving approach to the basics.
- Bright high school students should be able to understand my article: How to discover the Rogers-Ramanujan Identities. This was published in Resonance in 2015. This will tell you about one of Ramanujan’s very famous identities.
- Sagar Shrivastava and I have written An uncountable number of proofs of the Pythagoras theorem. This will appear in Mathematics Magazine, a magazine suitable for bright high school students and undergraduate students.
- My article How to discover the exponential function $e^x$ appeared in the magazine At Right Angles in their Nov 2017 issue.
- My article How to discover 22/7 and other rational approximations to $\pi$ appeared in At Right Angles in March 2014.
- Mathematics and Life, a speech I gave at the Millennium School.
