About

Zheng Liu is an associate professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He received his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 2016 under the supervision of Eric Urban. His research area is number theory, with a particular focus on p-adic properties of automorphic forms, special L-values, and Iwasawa theory. His work involves deep investigations into p-adic L-functions, theta lifts of Hida families, and the arithmetic of modular forms. Liu's research contributions include studies on derived p-adic heights, the leading coefficients of p-adic L-functions, and the Iwasawa Greenberg main conjecture for non-ordinary modular forms. His collaborations with other mathematicians have led to advances in understanding Eisenstein congruences, Archimedean zeta integrals for unitary groups, and the theory of Klingen Eisenstein series on symplectic groups. Overall, his research advances the understanding of the interplay between automorphic forms, p-adic analysis, and arithmetic geometry.
