Biography
Xiao Liang’s research interests lie in Cryptography and its intersections with related fields such as Quantum Computing, Computational Complexity Theory, and Computer Security. His work has concentrated on theoretical fundamentals, including Zero-Knowledge Protocols, Secure Multi-Party Computation, Non-Malleability, and Digital Signatures, as well as their practical applications, such as Secure Spectrum Allocation and Plausibly Deniable Storage. His research has been published at respected conferences (e.g., FOCS, CRYPTO, and ICALP).
Prior to his appointment at CUHK, Xiao Liang served as a postdoctoral fellow at NTT Research, Rice University, and Indiana University Bloomington. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and an M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics from Stony Brook University, and a Bachelor of Economics from Beijing Institute of Technology.
