ABOUT SHUNYU YAO
Gemini post training research. co-lead gemini-ascent project on research automation.I was a research scientist at Anthropic on reinforcement learning. Things I contribute to-with Vihan Jain: building the RL fundamental team-Claude 3.7 Sonnet-basic RL science behind Claude 4 family I was a postdoctoral researcher at UC Berkeley. I worked on dynamics in quantum systems in the past. My main contribution to science including:1. Understanding quantum many body chaos, especially the \'scramblon\' mode at semiclassical regime and various phenomena related to it.(Collaboration with Douglas Stanford and Zhenbin Yang, and later with Phil Saad and Shreya Vardhan)2. Understanding open quantum systems, especially discovery of the \'non-Hermitian Skin effect\' with Zhong Wang.(Later with Fei Song)For my publications, see:
