Guangqu Zheng
…Hi…

From 2024 fall: Tenure-track assistant professor at Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Boston University (faculty profile)
665 Commonwealth Ave, office CDS 429, Boston, MA 02215
Email: gzheng90@bu.edu
For the 2026/27 academic year, I am in charge of the
Statistics and Probability Seminar series at BU
Advising at BU
For undergraduate/Master students: you are expected to know real analysis and probability theory (equivalent to MA711, MA783 at BU); as of now, I have suitable projects on Poisson point processes (ref1), Stein’s method (ref2). Please do not hesitate to contact me (with your intention and a brief CV) if you are interested.
For PhD students: you are expected to be interested in stochastic analysis.
