I present a virtual talk with the title Can AI Show Creativity in Mathematics - Or Is It Just a Tool? at Beijing Instituite of Technology School of Mathematics on December 12, 2025. (.pdf Slides) and (.ppt Slides)

I wrote the note Can AI Show Creativity in Mathematics? Discussing this question may be as profound as whether the machines can ever become conscious. You can find the note here https://github.com/AIMath-Lab/CreativeAI (December 2025). 

The paper, How to Use Deep Learning to Identify Sufficient Conditions: A Case Study on Stanley's e-Positivity, with Shu Xiao Li is now available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.20019 (November 26, 2025).

I wrote the note WHY, HOW, and WHAT of Writing a Research Paper in Mathematics presenting an approach to mathematical writing to help prevent that the main results from being overlooked by readers. You can find it here https://github.com/AIMath-Lab/MathematicalWriting (November 2025).

The paper, The extra basis in noncommuting variables, with Stephanie van Willigenburg, is the fourth Most Downloaded (in the past 90 days) paper in Advances in Applied Mathematics (August 2025).

The paper, The Peak Algebra in Noncommuting Variables, with Shu Xiao Li, is now available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.12868 (June 17, 2025)

I present a talk on how AI can help solving problems in combinatorics, especially combinatorial representation theory, at the Research Center for Mathematics and Interdisciplinary Sciences, Shandong University, June 19, 2025. 

The paper, Chromatic Quasisymmetric Functions of the Path Graph, with Shamil Asgarli, Maria Esipova, Ethan Shelburne, Stephanie van Willigenburg and Tamsen Whitehead McGinley was published in Annals of Combinatorics, May 26, 2025.
