Graduate Research and Research Assistant

Columbia University Feb 2020 — June 2021

Principal Investigator: Henry Lam

Comprehensively studied a Cheap Bootstrap Method for Fast Inference and a biased stochastic estimators. Designed and Extensively studied the numerical performance of estimators based on the simulations.

L. Huang, Global Solution to a Non-linear Wave Equation of Liquid Crystal in the Constant Electric Field, SIAM Undergraduate Research Online Vol 12, 125-153. (DOI: 10.1137/18S017557).

  • Used the variational principle to derive the partial differential equation (PDE).

  • Introduced the notation of the energy conserved weak solution for the PDE and proved the existence of the energy conserved weak solution by the method of characteristics.
