Faculty

At Westlake, we welcome talented people, outstanding scholars, research fellows, and young scientists from all backgrounds. We expect to have a community of 300 assistant, associate, and full professors (including chair professors), 600 research, teaching, technical support and administrative staff, and 900 postdoctoral fellows by 2026.

"Grow together with our Westlake University."

Biography

Yigeng Zhao completed his bachelor’s program at Qingdao University. He received his master degree in pure mathematics from Capital Normal University in 2011 and doctorate at the University of Regensburg in 2016. After that, he was a postdoc there. He is currently the E Fund Endowed Assistant Professor.

Research

Research areas: Number theory and algebraic geometry. Recently interested in

1) Higher dimensional class field theory,

2) Geometric ramification theory.


Using duality theorems, we give a new direct and universal approach to higher dimensional class field theory, in particular our method also gives information on the p-part of the étale fundamental group. In a joint work, we prove a modified version of Kato-Saito conjecture on a twist formula of epsilon factors, later we generalize this to a relative version.
