Notes
  • Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. LinkedIn profile lists two actual finance internships: Quantitative Research Intern at Radix Trading LLC (Chicago, 2021) and Equity Research Intern at Millburn Ridgefield Corporation (New York, 2022). Identity is supported by independent cross-links (IMO 2017 Serbia result; Princeton Club of Chicago alumni bio naming the same Princeton math + UChicago PhD trajectory). Employer classification: Radix Trading is quantitatively confirmed - its own website states a proprietary, ML/statistics-driven electronic trading business. Millburn Ridgefield is a quantitative/systematic manager but its classification here rests on the ClickHouse company index description only (index-only), and the internship itself is self-reported on the LinkedIn profile rather than employer-confirmed, so Radix is the stronger quantitative-finance role of the two.Jun 2021
  • PhD student in machine learning theory at the University of Chicago, advised by Nathan Srebro and Alexander Razborov; personal site states he is a fifth-year PhD student.
  • Radix Trading (radixtrading.co) is a quantitative proprietary trading firm: its own site describes a 'research firm, powered by technology and monetized through trading' using 'machine learning and statistical methodologies' on 'major electronic markets' in North America, Europe and Asia.Jun 2021
  • Held a Quantitative Research Intern role at Radix Trading LLC in 2021 and an Equity Research Intern role at Millburn Ridgefield Corporation in 2022, per his LinkedIn profile.
  • Competed for Serbia at the 2017 International Mathematical Olympiad, scoring 22/42 for a silver medal at rank 72; the Serbia team that year included other medalists.Jul 2017
  • Spring 2022 Princeton BA in Mathematics with a Certificate in Statistics and Machine Learning; served as co-director of the Princeton University Mathematics Competition (PUMaC) as an undergraduate.
  • Senior thesis proved a local version of Chebotarev's density theorem for prime geodesics in SL_2(Z), advised by Peter Sarnak; awarded the Sigma Xi Research Book Award.
  • Millburn Ridgefield Corporation is classified as a quantitative systematic manager on the basis of the ClickHouse company index record alone (industry 'Investment Management', description citing 'disciplined quantitative, process-driven approaches to trading'); its own website could not be read during this run (millburncorp.com rejected TLS), so this is an index-only classification, not independent primary-source confirmation.
  • Attended Matematicka gimnazija (Belgrade), 2014-2018, prior to Princeton; a specialist mathematics high school.
  • GitHub handle github.com/marko-medvedev resolves to a page but its profile content could not be authoritatively read this run, and his personal site links a GitHub Pages host (marko-medvedev.github.io) rather than a confirmed account; no github_url saved to avoid a namesake error.
