About me

I am a third year Mathematic PhD student at the University of St Andrews, supported by the Chinese Scholarship Council programme. My research area is ergodic theory and dynamical systems, in particular, thermodynamic formalisms of countable-state symbolic systems and interval maps and some of their statistical properties. I am supervised by Mike Todd and Kenneth Falconer. You can find my CV here.
