Research

My research interest lies broadly in algebraic geometry, dynamical systems, and symplectic geometry. I am particularly interested in studying Calabi-Yau manifolds/categories, stability conditions, (derived) automorphisms, and mirror symmetry.

  1. A space of stability conditions that is not a length space
    Submitted.
  2. On entropy of P-twists
    Submitted, significantly revised recently.
  3. Nielsen realization problem for derived automorphisms of generic K3 surfaces
    Submitted, with K.-W. Lai.
  4. Fourier-Mukai numbers of K3 categories of very general special cubic fourfolds
    Israel J. Math., (2025), with K.-W. Lai.
  5. Stokes matrices and exceptional isomorphisms
    Math. Ann. (2024), with J. P. Whang.
  6. Shifting numbers of abelian varieties via bounded t-structures
    manuscripta math. (2024).
  7. Asymptotic shifting numbers in triangulated categories
    Adv. Math. (2023), with S. Filip.
  8. New rational cubic fourfolds arising from Cremona transformations
    Algebr. Geom. (2023), with K.-W. Lai.
  9. Contractibility of space of stability conditions on the projective plane via global dimension function
    Math. Res. Lett. (2023), with C. Li, W. Liu, and Y. Qiu.
  10. Counting special Lagrangian classes and semistable Mukai vectors for K3 surfaces
    Geom. Dedicata (2023), with J. S. Athreya and H. Lee.
  11. Attractor mechanisms of moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau 3-folds
    J. Geom. Phys. (2023), with A. Kanazawa.
  12. Systolic inequalities for K3 surfaces via stability conditions
    Math. Z. (2022).
  13. On pseudo-Anosov autoequivalences
    Adv. Math. (2021), with S. Filip, F. Haiden, L. Katzarkov, and Y. Liu.
  14. Categorical polynomial entropy

  15. Weil-Petersson geometry on the space of Bridgeland stability conditions
    Comm. Anal. Geom. (2021), with A. Kanazawa and S.-T. Yau.
  16. Mirror of Atiyah flop in symplectic geometry and stability conditions
    Adv. Theor. Math. Phys. (2018), with H. Hong, S.-C. Lau, and S.-T. Yau.
  17. Entropy of an autoequivalence on Calabi-Yau manifolds
    Math. Res. Lett. (2018).
