Personal information:

I joined the Morningside Center of Mathematics in Oct. 2025, as a postdoc mentored by Baohua Fu.

My research interest lies in Lie theoretic approach to complex geometry and algebraic geometry. Currently I am working on the geometry of complex algebraic varieties with large symmetry groups, mainly spherical varieties and nilpotent orbits. I am also interested in holomorphic contact geometry, with emphasis on Legendrian embeddings of projective manifolds.
