Yiyang Liu

Mathematics and logic at Carnegie Mellon University.

I go by Louis and publish as Yiyang Liu.

Research interests

Proof theory, formalized mathematics, and automated theorem proving.

I study mathematics, with a focus on discrete mathematics and logic, at Carnegie Mellon University. I am interested in the structure of proofs and in using proof assistants to make mathematical arguments precise. I write proofs in Lean.
