Yucheng Liu

I am a 3rd(~4th) year PhD student in the Mathematics department at the University of British Columbia. I am in the Probability Group and my supervisor is Gordon Slade.

Research Interests

• I am interested in statistical mechanical models including spin systems, percolation, self-avoiding walk, with special interest in their critical phenomena.
• I work with the lace expansion, which is a method to analyse high-dimensional models.
