About me

I’m Yuenian Zhou, a Ph.D. student and an associated member of SFB 1085 “higher invariants” at Universität Regensburg (Germany) since 2024, supervised by Prof. Moritz Kerz.

Previously, I completed my master’s studies at the Université Paris-Saclay (Paris-Sud) AAG (Analysis, Arithmetic, Geometry). Before that, I obtained my bachelor’s degree in mathematics at Zhejiang University in China.

My research interests are algebraic geometry and number theory (with a geometric flavor), especially ℓ-adic local systems, ℓ-independence, the Fontaine–Mazur conjecture, and Simpson’s motivicity conjecture.

Currently, I’m focusing on local systems over mixed-characteristic local fields, in particular the arithmetic properties of local systems over deformations of stable curves in the Deligne–Mumford stack.
