Algebraic Geometry · Derived Categories

Xun Lin

I am an Assistant Professor in Mathematics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK–Shenzhen), which I joined on September 1, 2026.

Previously, I held postdoctoral positions at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. I received my Ph.D. in Mathematics from the Yau Mathematical Sciences Center, Tsinghua University, in 2023, under the supervision of William Donovan.

I work in algebraic geometry, with particular interests in derived categories, the noncommutative Hodge conjecture, GLSM models, Hochschild–Serre algebras of smooth proper dg categories, Hodge theory, Hitchin fibrations, and categorical Torelli problems.
