Accepting Doctoral Students

Personal profile

Other responsibilities

The 18th International Symposium on Algorithmic Game Theory (SAGT 2025) will take place in Bath from September 2nd to 5th, 2025. We look forward to welcoming you here!

Research interests

Dr. Zhang leads a research lab in game theory, focusing on algorithmic decision-making, incentive design, and agent coordination in both competitive and cooperative settings. His work develops analytical tools to align individual incentives with system-level goals, with the aim to optimize system performance at equilibrium. His research involves worst-case guarantees and beyond worst-case analysis, designing mechanisms that remain effective under a broad range of conditions.

Beyond game theory, Dr. Zhang also conducts research on blockchain protocols and their applications, machine learning, and multi-agent systems. He has received independent research funding as principal investigator from The Leverhulme Trust and EPSRC. His broader interests extend to the digital economy and optimization.

Teaching interests

Dr Zhang is the unit leader for CM12006 - Mathematics for Computation (first year) and CM20316 - Artificial Intelligence 2 (second year).

Willing to supervise doctoral students

I do not have funding for international students. If you are a Chinese student applying through the Bath-CSC scheme, please note that results are usually released in June. Only apply to me if you are fully committed to accepting the offer if successful.

Occasionally, I may have funding for UK Home students through other channels. Feel free to ask.
