Congratulations, Dr. Lu

On April 16, 2025, Mr. Hongyu Lu marked a pivotal achievement by successfully defending his Ph.D. thesis, entitled "Numerical studies of fractional quantum anomalous Hall states: Emergent forms, collective excitations, and phase transitions". His clear and compelling presentation of his research findings from his time at HKU, along with his confident responses to impromptu questions, earned high praise from the Examining Committee, which included Prof. Xi Dai from HKUST, and Profs. Wang Yao and Dong-Keun Ki from HKU. Congratulations to Dr. Hongyu Lu! We wish him continued success and look forward to his contributions as an emerging leader in theoretical condensed matter physics.

2025年4月16日,卢虹宇先生迎来一个重要里程碑,他成功完成题为“分数量子反常霍尔态的数值研究:新的物态、集体激发和相变”的博士论文答辩。他在香港大学博士期间的研究成果得到清晰且精彩的展示,并自信地回答了答辩过程中审查委员现场提出的问题,赢得了由香港科技大学的戴希教授,以及香港大学的姚望教授和Dong-Keun Ki教授组成的审查委员会的高度赞扬。祝贺卢虹宇博士!我们祝愿他在未来道路上乘风破浪,并期待他成为理论凝聚态物理领域的新星。
