Dr. Wu's research centers on algebraic geometry and mathematical physics with specialized expertise in Gromov-Witten theory. His work investigates mathematical structures underlying string theory and quantum field theory, contributing significantly to mirror symmetry, quantum cohomology, and enumerative geometry. His Erdős number is 5, reflecting his connection to the broader mathematical community.

His publication record demonstrates consistent contributions to theoretical mathematics, with papers appearing in top-tier journals including Forum Math. Pi, Journal of Topology, and Advances in Mathematics. These works collectively advance understanding of Gromov-Witten invariants and their applications across mathematical physics.

As a Doctoral Supervisor at SUSTech, Dr. Wu mentors graduate students in advanced mathematical research within the Department of Mathematics, which forms part of SUSTech's Faculty of Science that also includes Physics, Chemistry, Earth and Space Sciences, and Statistics departments.
