2025 KSCW, Capturing Additive structures via Gowers Norms
I am an undergraduate student in the Department of Mathematics at Yonsei University in Korea.
My research interests lie in additive combinatorics, especially in structure-randomness dichotomies discovered in sets with some underlying algebraic structure. I am interested in approaches using Gowers norms and other Fourier analytic techniques. I am also highly interested in higher-order Fourier analysis itself. My interest in additive combinatorics was motivated by Roth's theorem and Szemerédi's theorem, so I am interested in any type of problems related to the solution set of linear configurations inside a given set of integers. Also, I am interested in measuring the randomness of a given subset of an abelian group.
I am currently participating in DAISY, a student seminar at Yonsei University.
