Welcome to Jie Ma's Home Page

I am a professor at the School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). I was a Hedrick Assistant Professor at the Department of Mathematics, UCLA, and a Postdoctoral Associate at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Carnegie Mellon University. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in 2011 from the School of Mathematics, Georgia Institute of Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Xingxing Yu. Back in 2007, I recieved my B.S. degree from the School of Mathematical Sciences, USTC. For more information please see my Curriculum Vitae as below.

I currently serve as a Managing Editor at the Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B and as an Associate Editor at the SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics.

I have been honored to receive funding from prestigious sources, including the National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars (国家自然科学基金委优秀青年基金) in 2016, the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars (国家自然科学基金委杰出青年基金) in 2021, and the National Key Research and Development Program of China (国家重点研发计划) in 2023.
