Tianqi Yang¶
I am a forth-year undergraduate at Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences (known as Yao Class), Tsinghua University. I’m currently visiting Prof. Ryan Williams at MIT for this semester. My research interests are graph algorithms and computational complexity, including circuit lower bounds, pseudorandomness, and the relationship between complexity and cryptography.
