Ce Jin
I am a third-year PhD student at MIT. I am fortunate to be co-advised by Virginia Vassilevska Williams and Ryan Williams. Previously, I was an undergraduate student in Yao Class, Tsinghua University.
I am interested in theoretical computer science, in particular fine-grained complexity and algorithms. (CV)
