Weilin Li

Profile

Before joining City University of New York, I was a Courant Instructor at New York University. Before that, I received my PhD in mathematics from the University of Maryland, College Park.

Courses Taught

Fall 2025

Math 432: Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable

Math A3200: Theory of Functions of Complex Variable I 

Research Interest

My research area is applied and computational harmonic analysis. Broadly speaking, I analyze and develop numerical methods that decompose and reconstruct data. More specifically, my current research interests lie in the computational theory of super-resolution and rigorous methods for compression and quantization. My work is supported by the National Science Foundation, PSC-CUNY, and the Foundation for City College.
