معرفی
Dapeng Zhan is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Michigan State University (MSU), where he has held this position since 2017. He earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics from the California Institute of Technology in 2004. His research focuses on Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE), a stochastic process describing random fractal curves in two-dimensional spaces, with applications to critical phenomena in statistical physics models like percolation and the Ising model. Zhan has held prior academic positions, including Gibbs Assistant Professor at Yale University (2007–2009) and Morrey Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley (2004–2007).
His research interests include Probability Theory, SLE, and statistical lattice models. He has received prestigious awards such as the Salem Prize (2012), Sloan Research Fellowship (2011–2015), and Simons Fellowship (2016). His work frequently appears in top journals like *Annals of Probability* and *Inventiones Mathematicae*.
Zhan teaches advanced courses in probability and analysis, including *Brownian Motion and Stochastic Analysis* and *Analysis I*. He has advised numerous research projects and holds grants from the NSF, including a CAREER award (2011–2018). His contributions span theoretical developments in SLE's reversibility, duality, and boundary behavior, with recent work exploring multi-force-point SLE and boundary Green’s functions.
