I am an assistant professor at Beijing International Center for Mathematical Research (BICMR) at Peking University (PKU).

Before joining BICMR, during 2018-2021, I was a Hedrick Assistant Adjunct Professor at the Department of Mathematics, UCLA. My mentor was Prof. Inwon Kim. I got my PhD at New York University in 2018. My PhD advisor was Prof. Fang-Hua Lin.

Here is my full CV.

Research Interests: PDEs and applied analysis, especially evolution free boundary problems, PDEs in fluid dynamics, and calculus of variations.

I am teaching Advanced Mathematics A (I) 《高等数学A （一）》 in Fall 2024.
课程大纲见此处，更多信息将发布在北京大学教学网。

I will be teaching Advanced Mathematics A (II) 《高等数学A （二）》 in Spring 2025.
关于课程的信息将于2025年2月发布。

I will be organizing a 3+X Seminar in PDEs for undergraduates 《偏微分方程 3+X 讨论班》 with De Huang in Spring 2025.
Its theme is Regularity and Singularity in PDEs of Fluid Dynamics, and it is designed to be accessible to undergraduate students who are comfortable with elementary differential equations.
Check out the Portal of SMS in Spring 2025 for more information.

欢迎申请我的博士后、博士研究生、以及本科生科研！
Postdocs, PhDs, and undergraduate research applicants are wanted!

• To postdoc applicants: We have funding for one postdoctoral position. Successful applicant is expected to have expertise in rigorous analysis of free boundary problems, and/or PDEs in fluid dynamics or related scientific subjects. Apply through Mathjobs and write me an email.
• To PhD applicants: We are looking for PhDs with strong interest and passion about exploring the beauty of math and the world. It would be great if your interests happen to match with mine (see above). Apply through the routine procedure, and in the meantime, write me an email with your transcript and curriculum vitae.
• 给想做本研的北大同学们：如果你对偏微分方程感兴趣（尤其是物理、流体力学、生物等领域的方程），欢迎随时联系我做本研。如果你已经接触过偏微分方程，那会十分有帮助，但那并不是开始本研的必要条件。
  如果你还没有确定自己的兴趣，但想先了解一下偏微分方程（不少同学大概都与你有类似的想法），也欢迎与我交流。
  
• 如果你需要我写推荐信：无论是什么类型的推荐信（申请奖学金、国内外的研究生项目、暑期学校、科研项目等等），请确保我比较熟悉你的情况。我会自己撰写，据实推荐。

BICMR and the School of Mathematical Sciences at PKU hold The Analysis and PDE seminar jointly. In Fall 2024, it meets regularly on Monday afternoons.
