Biography

Nicollas Mocelin Sdroievski is a fifth-year PhD student advised by professor Dieter van Melkebeek. Previously, he earned an MS in Computer Science at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR) and a BS in Information Systems at the Federal University of Technology - Paraná (UTFPR). His research interests lie in computational complexity theory, specifically lower bounds, derandomization, and interactive protocols, as well as the connections among these areas. His recent work has been on derandomization of constant-round interactive proof systems (or Arthur-Merlin protocols) and connections with uniform and non-uniform lower bounds.
