Delete this or merge this with Subhash Kak who wrote this blurb himself. (He specializes on writing about himself everywhere in wikipedia and elsewhere.) The citations that Kak lists are here not peer reviewed ones. Anyone can write one and upload it someplace.
By "research circles" in this article, Kak is referring to his own students: Priya Sivakumar, Abhilash Ponnath, William Perkins and Partha Basuchowdhuri. Gobalan Achayan 03:16, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
