Yan Zhong

I am a final-year CS Ph.D. student at Johns Hopkins University, advised by Xin Li.

I am broadly interested in (theoretical) computer science. I have been thinking about fundamental questions in the theory of computation, algorithms, and learning; the interaction between mathematics and computer science; as well as theoretical analysis of signature algorithmic questions arising in applications. I am also interested in how AI could contribute to mathematical research.

I’d be happy to discuss my research or potential collaborations—feel free to reach out anytime.

Previously, I was an undergraduate studying CS and Math at the University of Hong Kong, where I was lucky to have received guidance from and worked with (chronologically) Giulio Chiribella, Zhiyi Huang, and Shachar Lovett.
