Starting from Sept 2025, I am a research fellow (post-doc) at IGP/IMFP under the mentorship of Mingchen Xia .

From September 2022 to July 2025, I was PhD student at Institut Fourier under the supervision of Gérard Besson and Hervé Gaussier.

From September 2021 to June 2022, I was a master's student at Institut Fourier under the supervision of Gérard Besson.

My research area is complex geometry and geometric analysis.

I am interested in problems related to scalar curvature, complex Monge-Ampère equations, and canonical Kähler metrics.


(Pre-)Publications

[5] In progress...

[4] The 2-systole on compact Kähler surfaces with positive scalar curvature, arXiv:2601.02901, latest version, 2026

The statement in Thm 1.2 is a little bit misleading. It can be understood that: Thm 1.2 (1) means if you start from $\mathbb{P}^2$ and consider its blowup, the maximized model will be $\mathbb{P}^2$ itself, with value $\min_X S(\omega) \cdot \operatorname{sys}_2 = 12\pi$. Meanwhile, Thm 1.2 (2) means if you start from a Hirzebruch surface $F_e$ and consider its blowup, the maximized model will be $F_0 \cong \mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^1$, with value $8\pi$.

[3] A 2-systolic inequality on non-rational compact Kähler surfaces with positive scalar curvature, arXiv:2510.13353, latest version, 2025

We adapt the level set method in Kähler setting and prove a systolic inequality for non-rational ruled surface. This paper has been merged into [4].

[2] Rigidity of complete Kähler-Einstein metrics under cscK perturbations, arXiv:2510.13278, latest version, 2025

...

[1] The Kähler-Ricci soliton on bounded pseudoconvex domains, arXiv:2412.03345, latest version, 2024

There are some typos in the arXiv version and the proof of Proposition 3.1 is incorrect, while the statement that the soliton is expanding is still true by our assumption. Please see the revised version in the above link.

What's a mathematician to do?

"It seems entirely plausible that, with all the tremendously clever people working so hard on mathematics, there is nothing left for someone such as myself (who would be the first to admit they do not have any special talent in the field) to do. Perhaps my value would be to act more like cannon fodder? Since just sending in enough men in will surely break through some barrier."
