Hiro Tanaka

Welcome to Hiro's plot of land on Northwestern University's Math Department server.

I'm a second-year graduate student studying math at Northwestern.

My advisor is Kevin Costello, and I also work with David Nadler.

My research interests involve mathematics inspired by physics: the three (varied but intersecting) ideas I study most are topological field theories, Fukaya categories, and factorization algebras.

In my free time I tutor at the Great Hope Family Center in downtown Chicago, I play ultimate, and I coach Northwestern University's undergraduate Mock Trial team.
