Chair Professor College of Science, Department of Mathematics
Cai Heng Li， Chair Professor of Mathematics in Southern University of Science and Technology. His research area lies in algebraic combinatorics and (permutation) group theory. He got PhD in Mathematics from University of Western Australia. He is an internationally leading mathematician crossing the boundary between group theory and combinatorics. He has solved a number of fundamental problems on transitive group actions on graphs and maps, including a 100 year old problem posed by William Burnside.
