About me.

I started my undergraduate study in 2013 at School of Mathematical Science, Nankai University, Tianjin, China.

I ontained my Ph. D. degree at University of California, Santa Barbara in 2022. My advisor is Xianzhe Dai.

I was a postdoctoral fellow at Beijing International Center for Mathematical Research (BICMR), Peking University, under the supervision of Xiaobo Liu.

I am curretnly a postdoc at Northeastern University under the supervision of Maxim Braverman.

Besides mathematics, I enjoy playing the card game Yu-Gi-Oh , cycling and swimming.

Research

My main interests are geometric analysis and PDEs. More concretely, my current research focuses on the geometry and topology of the Landau-Ginzburg (LG) models, gluing formula of global spectral invariants and comparison geometry of hypersurfaces. See my Research Statement for more details.
