Who this advisor fits / 什么情况下适合你
- You want theory depth and proof/analysis-oriented problem framing.
- Applicants should bring theorem-first ML/quantum/diffusion-model foundations work, ideally with a proof artifact and a paper-style project. For PhD applicants, fellowship-level mathematical independen
- 你要的是理论深度、证明/分析导向的问题设定。
- 申请人应提交基于定理基础的 ML/量子/扩散模型基础工作，最好附带证明 artifact 和论文式项目。对于 PhD 申请者，数学独立性的 fellowship 级别是可见的基准线。
What to watch for / 什么情况下要慎重
- You only want fast benchmarks/API hacking, not domain papers or longer experimental loops.
- 你只想做快速 benchmark / API 拼装，不想读领域论文或做长期实验。
