About me

My name is Khai-Hoan Nguyen-Dang, with Nguyen-Dang as my surname. I'm originally from Vietnam, and in Vietnamese, my name is Nguyễn Đăng Khải Hoàn; most people call me Khai Hoan or simply Hoan.

Starting from March 2025, I will begin as a visiting scholar, followed by a postdoctoral position at the Morningside Center of Mathematics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, China under the mentorship of Prof. Xu Shen. 

Previously, from October 2021 to December 2024, I completed my Ph.D. at Padova University, Italy under the supervision of Prof. Adrian Iovita and Prof. Nicola Mazzari. My doctoral thesis focused on p-adic uniformization of abelian varieties.

Before my Ph.D., I was an ALGANT master's student, studying in Leiden and Padova from 2019 to 2021. I completed my undergraduate studies at HCMUS, Sai Gon, Vietnam from 2015 to 2019.

My academic interests lie broadly in mathematics, with a specific focus on geometry and number theory.

In believing that every sentient being has Buddha-nature, I am a Buddhist. I enjoy the art of mindful living inspired by Sư Ông Nhất Hạnh. I love Poems by Ôn Tuệ Sỹ.
