About me

I received my Bachelor degree in 2017 from the Zhejiang University, Department of Mathematics. I started my Master study in September 2017 in Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science of Chinese Academy of Sciences, under the supervision of Xin Liu. I then became a PhD candidate there in August 2019. During my PhD study, I visited the Hong Kong Polytechnic University for two years, under supervision of Xiaojun Chen. I got my Ph.D. degree in June 2022. Now, I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, sponsored by Yangyang Xu.
