Jinhyung Park

Jinhyung Park is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at KAIST, Daejeon, Korea. He obtained his Ph.D. from KAIST in 2014 under Prof. Sijong Kwak and was mentored as a CMC Fellow at KIAS (2014–2019). His research focuses on Algebraic Geometry, particularly syzygies of algebraic varieties, secant varieties, and positivity of line bundles.

• Education: Ph.D., KAIST (2014); MS/BS, KAIST and University of Chicago (2002/2001).
• Research Interests: His work explores geometric properties of projective manifolds, singularities in algebraic geometry, and applications of Okounkov bodies to divisors and syzygies. Recent trends include Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity bounds (e.g., for threefolds with rational singularities) and subadditivity of Okounkov bodies in fiber spaces.
• Teaching: Courses include Matrix Groups, Algebraic Geometry, and Calculus. He previously taught at Sogang University and Purdue University.
• Professional Affiliations: Member of the Korean Mathematical Society, American Mathematical Society, and other international societies. Organized the 8th East Asia Number Theory Conference at KAIST (2019).
