Something about my research

Though I said that I was a PH.D student, I rarely talk about MY research on this blog because first I don't want to make this blog to be too personal and second I didn't get any academic progress yet.

But today I'll show something about my research, because I passed my PH.D proposal last week. It is really a big step for me.

After hesitated on many subjects, such as computational economics,  metric embedding, boolean function complexity, I finally choose quantumn communication complexity as my Ph.D thesis topic. Because recent several years, this topic had some breakthrough by Razborov, Shi, Sherstoc etc. I belive there are something worthful I can focus on.

In detail, I will find out if quantum mechanism is helpful for communication, i.e. is there NOT a exponential gap between classical and quantum communication complexity. It's a widely known problem opened for more than ten years. Though I'm not ready to solve such a big problem, I try it on some special cases and related problems.

I uploaded my proposal to Google Docs. You can check it here(unavailable yet). Comment and discuss are welcome.

 

PS: What's a pity of my English :) .

        得练练啊,堂主!!

              方向挺好的,有前瞻性!
              不过计算经济学也不错,我个人感觉,估计你可以弄些副业,你在一些问题的思考很有深度。
              P.S.metric embedding 是什么意思?

              • At 2007.11.16 20:09, zhiqiang said:

                这里有关于metric embedding的教程,翻译过来就是测度嵌入,研究如何把一个度量空间嵌入到另一个,使得变形最小,是前两年比较热的一个方向。

                      我个人觉得在计算机科学领域现在最值得研究的3个方向是:人工智能,量子计算,语义形式化。
                      嘿嘿,不错不错。

                      平时可以向大侠多请教。本人研究领域:网络理论。

                        一直以为堂主在国外读的博士,清华读的研究生,北大读的本科,看来纯属本人臆测,哈哈.还是很厉害的,至少堂主敢于晒自己的英语.
