'''Jaikumar Radhakrishnan''' (born 30 May 1964) is an Indian computer scientist specialising in [[combinatorics]] and [[communication complexity]]. He has served as dean of the [[Tata Institute of Fundamental Research#School of Technology and Computer Science|School of Technology and Computer Science]] at the [[Tata Institute of Fundamental Research]], [[Mumbai]], India, where he is currently a senior professor.<ref>{{cite web|title=Jaikumar Radhakrishnan|url=http://www.tcs.tifr.res.in/~jaikumar/cv.pdf|publisher=Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai|accessdate=1 July 2013}}</ref>

He obtained his B.Tech. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the [[Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur]] in 1985 and his Ph.D. in Theoretical Computer Science from [[Rutgers University]], [[NJ]], USA, in 1991 under the guidance of [[Endre Szemerédi]]. His first research paper, titled "Better Bounds for Threshold Formulas", won the [[Machtey Award]] for best student paper at the IEEE [[Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science]] (FOCS) in 1991. His areas of research include [[combinatorics]], [[graph theory]], [[probability theory]], [[information theory]], [[communication complexity]], [[computational complexity theory]], [[quantum computation]] and [[quantum information science]].

He was awarded the [[Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology]] in the category of Mathematical Sciences in 2008, India's highest honour for excellence in science, mathematics and technology.<ref>{{cite web|title=Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Awards For Science And Technology 2008|url=http://www.dst.gov.in/awards/award08.htm|publisher=Department of Science & Technology, Govt of India|accessdate=1 July 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130824100306/http://www.dst.gov.in/awards/award08.htm|archive-date=24 August 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>
