Hyungryul Harry Baik, Ph.D.

多諳 (多谙) 白亨烈 

I am the Chief Professor at KAIST Graduate School of AI for Math since June 2025 and a (tenured) Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at KAIST. I joined KAIST in February 2017. 

My main research areas are low-dimensional topology, geometric group theory, and related topics. 

Here is my CV. (pdf)

I am a topologist but I am interested in questions in a very broad spectrum. Some of my recent works use combinatorics, probabilistic method, number theory, and dynamical systems. For more details, please visit my research page. 

Here is my math genealogy page. 

브런치에도 가끔 글을 씁니다.

오픈AI "수학 난제 300여 개 해결"...기대감 속 논란도 (in Korean)

I contributed a telephone interview to this report on OpenAI’s announcement of solutions to mathematical problems, discussing the importance of verifying and understanding AI-generated proofs and their value for further mathematical research.
