He got his master degree at Peking University and his PhD at Kyoto University, now is an associated professor at Sun Yat-sen University. He got some important developments in the minimal model program, and published his results in some top journals such as Journal of Algebraic Geometry, Algebra & Number theory, Math Ann., Crelle's journal and so on.
Title: Some progress on the classification of Fano threefolds
Abstract: It is well known that there are 106 classes of smooth Fano threefolds. For singular case, the classification is far from being settled. In this talk, I will talk some backgrounds and show some recent progress on the classification of canonical Fano threefolds. This is a joint work with Chen Jiang.
