Hello! I am
Xuehuai,

a first-year PhD student at Yale Linguistics. I graduated in 2025 from Pomona College, where I studied mathematics and linguistics. I am interested in the union of these two fields and particularly in their intersection.

Below are some of my projects and fun facts (probably outdated).

Finnish case, person, and voice

Adaptive Landscape & Language Change

Grammar behind Approximating Numbers

Polytopes

Unfolding Search Synthesis
