Ravindra Girivaru

G. V. Ravindra is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Missouri--St. Louis, affiliated with the College of Arts and Sciences. His research focuses on Algebraic Geometry, particularly on vector bundles, hypersurfaces, and algebraic cycles.

Research Interests: Ravindra's work explores arithmetic and geometric properties of algebraic varieties, including Arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay (ACM) bundles, Noether-Lefschetz theorems, and torsion cycles in codimension two. He investigates connections between bundle cohomology, generalized quadrics, and higher-dimensional varieties.

Recent Publications: His recent articles (2013-2025) address topics such as Hodge ranks of ACM bundles, defects in higher-dimensional varieties, Grassmann codes, and infinitesimal Lefschetz theorems. These publications appear in journals like Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Finite Fields and Applications, and Advances in Mathematics.
