Hi! I'm Herng Yi (that's my given name), a mathematics Ph.D. candidate and Vanier Scholar at the University of Toronto. My advisors are Regina Rotman and Alexander Nabutovsky. I completed a B.Sc. in Mathematics at MIT.
Research Interests
My research interests lie in Quantitative Topology. I have derived bounds on the sizes or quantities of geodesics and sweep-outs in Riemannian manifolds. My work also involves bounding the geometric complexity of topological constructions such as cohomology operations and homotopy groups.
