Greetings! I am Xiaofeng Chen, and I usually publish academic papers under Ricky X. F. Chen. I am now a professor of the School of Mathematics, and a distinguished scholar of the Huangshan Mountain (a.k.a. Yellow Mountain) program at Hefei University of Technology,Hefei, China. I received my PhD in Mathematics at Virginia Tech in U.S.A. under the supervision of Prof. Christian Reidys, and then worked for Virginia Tech and the University of Virginia after that. I received my M.S. and B.S. at Nankai University and SWUST, respectively. By the time I started to pursue my PhD, I had worked for the telecom company Huawei, as a wireless research engineer, for more than five years.
