Lan-Hsuan Huang 黃籃萱

Professor of Mathematics

My main research focuses on general relativity and geometric analysis. My research has been recognized by the Fellow of the AMS, Simons Fellowship, and an NSF CAREER award. I earned B.S. in Mathematics from National Taiwan University and my Ph.D. in Mathematics from Stanford University. I have previously held positions at Columbia University and the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton.

Here is my short CV.

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

I have co-organized research activities for the broader scientific community, including the SLMath Semester Program New Frontiers in Curvature in Fall Semester 2024.

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)
