I am an Assistant Professor in Economics at Peking University.

My research interests include

  • econometrics
  • macroeconomics
  • economic transition and development

I have done works on functional data analysis in the time series setting, both theoretically and empirically, with applications in macroeconomics and finance. This line of research aims to contribute to the econometric analysis of functional dynamics, especially distributional dynamics in both stationary and nonstationary settings.

I also work on developing and using other big data analytical tools, such as machine learning methods to study important issues in economics, such as inequality and mobility.

I am also very interested in issues on macroeconomics, monetary economics, economic transition and development. I have projects trying to understand the various phenomena that have appeared in the process of Chinese industrial structure transformation, state-owned company reforms and financial system reforms. I also work on the investigation of the sources of growth in the fast catching-up economies.
