Khanh Duy Trinh

Khanh Duy Trinh is a Professor (non-tenure-track) at Waseda University's Global Center for Science and Engineering, specializing in probability theory and its applications to random matrix theory and stochastic topology. He holds a PhD from Osaka University (2012) and has held academic positions at Tohoku University and Kyushu University.

• Current affiliation: Waseda University (2025-present)
• Past roles: Associate Professor at Waseda (2019-2025), Tohoku University, Kyushu University
• Research areas: Beta ensembles, Random topology, Spectral measures, Stochastic geometry

His work demonstrates universal behavior in random matrix models through spectral analysis and topological persistence. Key contributions include central limit theorems for eigenvalue statistics, Poisson approximations in high-temperature regimes, and geometric interpretations of persistence diagrams. His recent papers focus on generalized beta processes and higher-dimensional complex structures.

Current projects include:

• JSPS Grant 2024-2029: Universal approaches in random matrix theory
• Past JSPS Grant 2019-2023: Multi-aspects of beta ensembles

Teaching activities at Waseda include:

• Introduction to Probability and Statistics
• Advanced Probability and Statistics
• Master's Thesis advising in Pure and Applied Mathematics
