Di Yue 岳 镝
I am an incoming PhD student in the theory group at University of Toronto, fortunate to be advised by Prof. Aleksandar (Sasho) Nikolov. Previously, I obtained my BS degree from Peking University in 2025. During my undergraduate years, I worked closely with Professors Shaofeng Jiang, Robert Krauthgamer and Lingxiao Huang. Here is my CV.
My research interest lies in theoretical computer science, with a current focus on discrepancy theory. I also like computational problems related to metric spaces and high-dimensional geometry. Concrete topics include dimension reduction, metric embeddings and approximation algorithms. See my publications.
