Yuchen Anki Fan

Hello, and welcome to my homepage!

My name is Yuchen Fan, and I am a first-year mathematics PhD student at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University. 

I am interested in probability theory and analytic number theory, especially the connections between the statistical behavior of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line, log-correlated fields, and Gaussian multiplicative chaos. I am also interested in probabilistic aspects of quantum surfaces, including their semiclassical limits and large deviations.

I completed my integrated undergraduate and master's degree at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. My master's thesis was supervised by Prof. Louis-Pierre Arguin, and I have also worked with Prof. Dmitry Belyaev and Prof. Rama Cont on several projects. At Oxford, I was interested in complex analysis, functional analysis, rough path and stochastic analysis.

Besides of mathematics, I am a singer, global traveller, train rider, video gamer, and city walker.
