Zhaolin Li (李兆林)

I am a J.J. Sylvester Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins, working with Prof. Yiannis Sakellaridis. Before that, I obtained my Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota under the supervision of Prof. Dihua Jiang.

Department of Mathematics, Johns Hopkins University, 404 Krieger Hall, 3400 N. Charles Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21218, USA.

I am working on number theory, mainly interested in automorphic forms, L-functions, relative trace formula, and related areas in the relative Langlands program.
