Maths







Broadly speaking, I am interested in Algebraic Number Theory. More particularly, the problems I have been looking at are mostly about applying techniques from p-adic Hodge theory to questions in Iwasawa theory, e.g. relating p-adic L-functions to Selmer groups over some cyclotomic extensions. The pioneer in this area is Bernadette Perrin-Riou who has developed many powerful machineries which I make use of in my works. Her works have always been great inspirations to me. Results of Laurent Berger, notably those on (phi,Gamma)-modules and Wach modules, have also motivated many of my works. Other people working on related problems are: Pierre Colmez, Byoung Du Kim, Shinichi Kobayashi, Masato KuriharaDavid Loeffler, Robert Pollack, Jay Pottharst, Ian Sprung, Sarah Zerbes and many more. I do apologise to those whom I forgot to mention, please let me know if you can think of any of them.
