I am a PhD candidate in mathematics at TU Delft (Technische Universiteit Delft), under the supervision of Martijn Caspers. I received my M.Sc. in mathematics from Wuhan University in 2023, under the supervision of Guixiang Hong, and my B.Sc. in physics from Wuhan University in 2020.
I work on operator algebras and free probability, with particular interests in rigidity of von Neumann algebras, q-Gaussian algebras, and strong convergence of random matrices.
I expect to complete my PhD in June 2027 and am currently seeking postdoctoral positions starting in summer or autumn 2027.
