      Non-Abelian Hodge Theories and the Reductive Shafarevich Conjecture

      SpeakerMy research subjects contain complex algebraic-analytic geometry, complex hyperbolicity, non-abelian Hodge theories in both Archimedean and non-Archimedean settings, Nevanlinna theory, and the interplay among them. My current interest is harmonic mapping to Euclidean buildings, linear Shafarevich conjecture, hyperbolicity of algebraic varieties via representation of fundamental groups.Co...
