Vikram Singh – My Academic Genealogy\(^*\)



I really don't mean any arrogance by showing this genealogy. Its just the tree to show how the hubs of research and knowledge have changed along time. If we go further deep into this, it can be seen that the genealogy of the oldest guy Prof. Jacob Bernoulli goes to a Greek mathematician, Gregory Chioniadis who went to Ilkhans Court at Tabriz (Persia, current Iran), where he learnt astronomy and astrophysics from Shams ad-Din Al-Bukhari (-> Nasir al-Din al-Tusi -> Kamal al Din Ibn Yunus ->) a student of Sharaf al-Din al-Tusi who I am not sure but can be a student of some Indian Scholar. This shows how there is pattern to the history of the world and the way it takes a full turn in a certain period of time.

\(^*\) : Genealogy is defined based on your doctoral advisor. But as I am not a Phd. so I considered my master's advisor for this.
