About me
I’m Yuenian Zhou (周越年), a Ph.D. candidate in mathematics 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 lie in algebraic geometry and number theory, centered on the rigidity and arithmetic properties of local systems. I am especially interested in complex, p-adic, and 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.
