Dr. Jungkai Alfred Chen is an algebraic geometer working on areas such as higher dimensional geometry, birational classification theory, minimal model program, and Fourier-Mukai transforms. 

The laboratory aims to investigate some fundamental problems in birational geometry, based at National Taiwan University. We plan to develop some theory and techniques in higher dimension geometry including: singularities and explicit MMP, derived categories in MMP, motivic integration, pluricanonical maps, and explicit computations. We seek for a systematical approach for explicit birational classification theory, geometry of algebraic fiber spaces, and singularities in minimal model program. Also, we will also search for possible application to some real-world challenges. 

With the collaboration of many more members in National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) and in other universities in Taiwan, we form some project-oriented research teams and run seminars and workshops.
