Career edit
Liu received his BS Degree from Peking University in 2007 and PhD degree from Columbia University, New York, in 2012 under the direction of Shou-Wu Zhang. He was a C.L.E. Moore Instructor at MIT from 2012 to 2015 and an assistant professor at Northwestern University from 2015 to 2018 before being appointed an associate professor at Yale University.[2][3] Liu returned to China in 2021 to join Zheijiang University became a full professor of mathematics.[1]
Liu has made important contributions to arithmetic geometry and number theory. His contributions span a wide spectrum of topics such as arithmetic theta lifts and derivatives of L-functions, the Gan–Gross–Prasad conjecture and its arithmetic counterpart, the Beilinson–Bloch–Kato conjecture, the geometric Langlands program, the p-adic Waldspurger theorem, and the study of étale cohomology on Artin stacks.[2]
Awards edit
He received a Sloan Research Fellowship in 2017.[2]
He was awarded the 2018 SASTRA Ramanujan Prize for his contributions to the field of mathematics. He shared the prize with Jack Thorne.[4][3]
