Academic Fun Facts


My  Erdös number is three, which means I am 3-hops away from Paul Erdös (a great mathematician) in the collaboration graph. The coauthor of mine who has an Erdös number 2 is Pengjun Wan, the coauthors of mine with an Erdös number 3 are Xiang-Yang Li, Yu Wang, Wenzhan Song and Weizhao Wang.
Also see my academic ancestors: Xiang-Yang Li-->Shang-Hua Teng (
Gödel Prize) --> Gary Miller --> Manuel Blum (Turing Award) --> Marvin Minsky (Turing Award) -->   ... ,  --> Alonzo Church -->   ... ,  --> Poisson --> Lagrange --> Euler --> Bernoulli, .....

 


Volunteer


I was a volunteer in Alder Planetarium Museum . I enjoy being close to the science at Alder Planetarium Museum.
