π About Me
As a PhD student expected to graduate in 2028, I am currently actively seeking LLM-related research internship opportunities to further my academic and industrial journey. If you have any relevant openings or are interested in academic collaborations, please feel free to contact me at xiaoyang.liu@sjtu.edu.cn.
Hi! My name is Xiaoyang Liu (εζζ΄). I am a second-year PhD candidate advised by Prof. Tao Luo at School of Mathematical Sciences, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU).
My research lies at the intersection of Large Language Models (LLMs) and formal verification (Lean), specifically focusing on AI4Math and Verifiable Code Generation.
