Dr Ashraf did his postdoc at University of Southern California, LA, and at the Institute of Parallel and Distributed Computing at University of Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany. From the year 2002, he has been working on problems of learning and teaching mathematics at the high school, college and university level. In order to address these and related problems, he has started an innovative and futuristic MS Program at NUST, Islamabad. The name of the graduate program is (ITL) Innovation, Technology, and Learning. It is a close replica of the TIE (Technology, Innovation, Education) program at Harvard University. He has been conducting National & International Workshops on "The Magic and Beauty of Differential Calculus" for the last five years. He had participants from India, China, Ireland, Germany and the UK.

His research work on problems of learning mathematics using technology had been presented in International Conferences in Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Australia, Taiwan and of course Pakistan. 

In 1994, Maxim Kontsevich posed the Homological Mirror Symmetry (HMS) conjecture at the ICM in Zurich. HMS is a homological version (meaning equivalence at the level of categories) of the phenomenon of Mirror Symmetry (MS) observed by Physicists studying string theory. MS serves as an unexpected bridge between the complex geometry of one manifold X and the symplectic geometry of its mirror manifold XV. Fukaya categories, constructed in the works of Kenji Fukaya and collaborators, are fairly complicated entities which constitute the A-side (or the symplectic side) of the HMS conjecture.

In this particular talk, Dr. Haniya Azam will give a down to earth introduction to the Fukaya category of a surface of genus greater than 2. Part of this talk is based on joint work with Christian Blanchet, which is an attempt to give an intrinsic topological model for the Fukaya category of a Riemann surface disregarding the area form (and hence the symplectic structure) on the surface.
