Professor of Mathematics

 

My main research focuses on general relativity and geometric analysis, and I have also worked on various applications in other scientific fields. My research has been recognized by an NSF CAREER award, a Simons Fellowship, and the Fellow of the AMS. I earned my Ph.D. in Mathematics from Stanford University and have previously held positions at Columbia University and the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton.

Here is my short CV.

 

Editorial Board

I have served as an Associate Editor for Journal of Mathematical Physics since 2022.

 

Outreach educational activities:

I have been involved in activities that promote science to a broader audience, including working with beginning graduate students and K-12 education.

• In this interview by UConn Today, The Shape of Universe, I explained the concept of center of mass in general relativity.
• Trapped surfaces, topology of black holes, and positive mass theorem - an expository article for beginning graduate students in Notices of the AMS. The article has been translated in Chinese, published in Mathematics Advance in Translation (数学译林)
• I'm the featured scientist in this episode, Bubble Trouble, of children’s podcast STEAM Daydream with National Children’s Museum

 

Organization activities

With colleagues, I have co-organized several research activities at UConn for graduate and undergraduate students

• Northeast Workshop in Geometric Analysis (2022)
• UConn Summer School in Minimal Surfaces, Flows, and Relativity (2018)
• UConn Geometry Day (2016 - present)
• UConn Semester in Differential Geometry (2013)

 

I have also co-organized several research activities for the broader scientific community, including the SLMath Semester Program New Frontiers in Curvature.
