    Zhiwei Yun

    Zhiwei Yun (Chinese: 恽 之 玮 ; pinyin: Yùn Zhīwěi;


    born September 1982) is a Chinese-born American Zhiwei Yun
    mathematician and writer. He is a Professor of
    Mathematics at MIT specializing in number theory,
    algebraic geometry and representation theory, with a
    particular focus on the Langlands program.

    He was previously a C. L. E. Moore instructor at


    Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2010 to
    2012, assistant professor then associate professor at
    Stanford University from 2012 to 2016, and professor Yun at Oberwolfach in 2012
    at Yale University from 2016 to 2017. Born Yun Zhiwei (恽之玮)
    September 1982 (age 42)
    Changzhou, China[3]
    Education Alma mater Peking University (BS)
    Princeton University (PhD)
    Yun was born in Changzhou, China.[3] As a high
    Known for Contributions to number theory,
    schooler, he participated in the International
    representation theory and
    Mathematical Olympiad in 2000; he received a gold
    algebraic geometry
    medal with a perfect score.[1] Yun received his
    bachelor's degree from Peking University in 2004. In Awards Gold Medal, IMO (2000)[1]
    2009, he received his Ph.D. from Princeton University, SASTRA Ramanujan Prize
    under the direction of Robert MacPherson.[4][5] (2012)[2]
    2018 New Horizons In
    Mathematics Prize (2018)

    Work Morningside Medal (2019)


    Scientific career
    His collaborations with Wei Zhang, Xinyi Yuan and Fields Mathematics
    Xinwen Zhu have received attention in publications
    Institutions Massachusetts Institute of
    such as Quanta Magazine and Business Insider.[6][7] In Technology
    particular, his work with Wei Zhang on the Taylor
    Stanford University
    expansion of L-functions is "already being hailed as Yale University
    one of the most exciting breakthroughs in an important
    Doctoral Robert MacPherson
    area of number theory in the last 30 years."
    advisor
    Yun also made substantial contributions towards the
    global Gan–Gross–Prasad conjecture.

    Awards
    Yun was awarded the SASTRA Ramanujan Prize in 2012 for his "fundamental contributions to several
    areas that lie at the interface of representation theory, algebraic geometry and number theory."[2]

    In December 2017, he was awarded 2018 New Horizons In Mathematics Prize together with Wei Zhang,
    Aaron Naber and Maryna Viazovska.

    He was included in the 2019 class of fellows of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to
    geometry, number theory, and representation theory, including his construction of motives with
    exceptional Galois groups".[8] In 2019 he received the Morningside Medal jointly with Xinwen Zhu.[9]
