Research Experience
- Research projects include: Utility of Entanglement for Joint Communication and Instantaneous Detection in Quantum Channels; Capacity of Linear Computation over (Noiseless) Quantum Multiple Access Channel; Generic Capacity of K-user Linear Computation Broadcast; Capacity of Linear Computation Broadcast.
Education
- 2021–Present: Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, University of California, Irvine, CA, USA, advised by Prof. Syed A. Jafar; 2017–2021: B.E. in Communications Engineering, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangdong, China.
Background
- Research interests: Fundamental limits (information-theoretic capacity) of classical and quantum communication and computation networks, addressing modern concerns such as privacy, security, and reliability. Focus on canonical models underlying such networks, particularly where the largest gaps remain in our understanding of what is possible and what is impossible.
