Stanley Yao Xiao Postdoctoral Fellow

HU 1015 Department of Mathematics University of Toronto Toronto, Ontario M5S 2E4 CANADA Email: syxiao@math.toronto.edu

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Toronto. My mentors are John Friedlander , Arul Shankar, and Jacob Tsimerman. Previously I was a NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford.

My primary area of interest is Number Theory. Specific topics that I am interested in include arithmetic geometry, arithmetic statistics, analytic number theory, and algebraic geometry.

I obtained my Ph.D in pure mathematics from the University of Waterloo in 2016. My doctoral advisor was Professor Cameron L. Stewart.

My Erdős number is two, through Cameron L. Stewart.

Here is my CV.

Here is my research statement.

Here is my entry at the Math Genealogy Project.

Here is my ORCID profile.

I am a frequent user of MathOverflow.
