Biography:Yuguang Shi

Yuguang Shi (史宇光 Shi Yuguang, born 1969, Yinxian, Zhejiang Province) is a Chinese mathematician at Peking University. His areas of research are geometric analysis and differential geometry. He was awarded the ICTP Ramanujan Prize in 2010, for "outstanding contributions to the geometry of complete (noncompact) Riemannian manifolds, specifically the positivity of quasi-local mass and rigidity of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds."

He earned his Ph.D. from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1996 under the supervision of Weiyue Ding.
