My recent research interests are rigidity theorems on compact manifolds with boundary; prescribed curvature problems and geometric flows in conformal geometry, such as, scalar curvature flow, Q-curvature flow, scalar curvature plus mean curvature flow, on compact manifolds; and fractional Q-curvature flow on the unit sphere.
Prerequisites of my future Phd students (NO MASTER STUDENT POSITIONS ARE AVAILABLE):
First of all, you should be interested in geometry, explicitly differential geometry and Riemannian geometry. Definitely you will benefit from the following two courses:
1. Partial Differential Equations; 2. Differential Geometry/ Riemannian Geometry.
You should decide to pursue a Phd position in your near future before going to meet me. Be patient and keep working hard.
You are welcome to join the group of geometric analysis at Nanjing University.
