Yang-Hui He (simplified Chinese: 何杨辉; traditional Chinese: 何楊輝; pinyin: Hé Yáng Huī; born 29 September 1975[1]) is a mathematical physicist, who is a Fellow at the London Institute,[2] which is based at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, as well as lecturer and former Fellow at Merton College, Oxford.[3][4] He holds honorary positions as visiting professor of mathematics at City, University of London,[5] Chang-Jiang Chair professor at Nankai University,[6] and President of STEMM Global scientific society.[7]

Yang works on the interface between quantum field theory, string theory, algebraic geometry and number theory, as well as how AI and machine-learning help with these problems.[8][9] He is one of the pioneers of the field of using AI for pure mathematics.

Yang is author of over 200 scientific publications[10] and is also a keen communicator of science, giving regular public lectures[11][12][13][14][15] including the Royal Institution Friday Evening Discourse,[16] as well as podcasts.[17][18][19] His other outreach activities include acting an advisor to BMUCO[20] and being a fellow of the One Garden.[21]
