About me

Hi! I am Litian Zhang, an undergraduate student majoring in mechanics at Tsinghua University. I am applying for a PhD position in 2025 Fall.

My research interests lie in computational physics and computer graphics. The same physical phenomenon can be interpreted numerically in various ways, and different algorithms and discretization methods shape our understanding of reality.Recently, I am focused on physics-based simulation, investigating the connection between the physical world and computational algorithms.

Here is my curriculum vitae.
