一些建议
至少, students should have had at least one year of Abstract Algebra and one year of Analysis (real and complex) in their undergraduate preparation. It is helpful to list the textbooks used for these courses. Since our research is centered around 数论/表示论, 几何/拓扑/动力学, 代数几何, our aim is to accept only those students with an interest in at least one of these areas. The Statement of Purpose is a good place to describe this.
