According to some researches and studies it was found that at some point of time Aryabhatt went to kusumapura for advanced studies and lived there.

Aryabhatt's major work comprises of mathematics and astronomy. Most of the Aryabhatt's work can be known from aryabhatiya. His work in mathematics and astronomy is extensively referred in Indian mathematics literature and able to be part of modern mathematics also. If we see the mathematical section of Aryabhatt we will see his work in arithmetic, algebra, plane trigonometry, and spherical trigonometry. Along with these major sections of mathematics it also contains the work done by him in continued fraction, Quadratic equation, sum of power series and sine tables
