My name is Nikita Kalinin. My scientific interests include tropical geometry, sandpiles, algebraic geometry, number theory. I love teaching.
I am no longer a postdoc in University of Geneva since July 2016, more recent information can be found on http://mathcenter.spb.ru/nikaan/.
You can check how tropical curves (and hypersurfaces, in general) emerge from abelian sandpile models: Tropical curves and sandpiles
