Welcome to my homepage
- Research
My research is mainly focused on rigidity theory, especially combinatorial rigidity in low-dimensional spaces. My advisor and I are working on good combinatorial upper bounds for the rank of 3D rigidity matrix of graphs, to gain better understanding of the long open problem of 3D rigidity characterization and algorithms. Our bounds are expected to give better algorithms for detecting 3D overconstraints and dependencies. The following is a list of publications:
- Jialong Cheng, Meera Sitharam, Iileana Streinu. ``Nucleation-free 3D rigidity''. Accepted to Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry (CCCG), 2009, (Journal version in preparation).
- Jialong Cheng, Meera Sitharam. ``Maxwell-independence: a better rank estimate for 3D rigidity matroids''. Proceedings of FWCG: Fall Workshop in Computational geometry, Oct. 2010 . Journal version can be found on arXiv(http://arxiv.org/abs/1010.4052).

Short CV
I graduated in 2008 with a B.E. in Computer Science and
Technology from Special class for the Gifted Young at University of
Science and Technology of China (USTC).
Now I am working on combinatorial rigidity theory with supervisor Dr. Meera Sitharam at CISE department of University of Florida.
