—— Erdős Pál

Hi! I am a Ph.D. student in ACO (Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization) at Carnegie Mellon University.

Previously, I received a B.S. Computational Math from Fudan University, and a B.A. Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science from Rutgers University, both in 2023. I also spent two wonderful semesters at Budapest Semesters in Mathematics in the spring and summer of 2022.

My Erdős number is 2.
