I am interested in probability and mathematical physics. I mainly work on random two dimensional geometry.
I am co-organising the
Hong Kong Probability Seminar.

Mentoring
Starting from August 2022, I am mentoring (jointly with Pierre Nolin) Yifan Gao as a Postdoc in City University of Hong Kong. He has obtained his PhD in Peking University.
In the academic year 2021 - 2022, I have mentored the M2 thesis (2nd year master) of Tiancheng He, who is a student from ENS Ulm, and has attended the master program M2 Mathématiques de l'aléatoire in Université Paris-Saclay. The thesis is entitled Geometric properties of some models in Brownian geometry.
