Current and Future Activities
This semester:
- Mathematical Physics Seminar, Topic: Quantum Cohomology, 2024.09-2025.12 (Website)
Research Interest
My research interest lies in algebraic geometry and mathematical physics around derived category of coherent sheaves, including (homological) mirror symmetry, Donaldson-Thomas type invariants, Bridgeland stability, Hodge theory and quantum cohomology.
Currently, I’m interested in noncommutative minimal model program and categorical Donaldson-Thomas theory.
