I created my personal site, after registered this domain name for a year and let it sit around (yes, I registered last year before the application season.) I don't think this is just useful for math. Math is part of my life, not the other way around. This site will live no matter what.

I really don't like to polish my CV and cover letter. They are only useful to get you across the barrier one, namely pass the minimum requirements.

What is useful to share?

• Ben Webster's website, where he keeps a list of talk slides and video links
• James Milne's website, which is why I called my site pzhou.org. So many useful notes. I learned number theory basics, etale cohomology etc from here.
• Henry Liu, best notes on the topics that I care about, geometric representation theory.
• Daniel Litt, learned etale topology from him (ok, I didn't really learn it well, but that's my fault.)

Sorry, this is not a full step-by-step guide, but rather a to-myself-note.

This site is built using dokuwiki, a simple to use, no-sql website, purely php. classical style.

Here is a little tweak to get myself comfortable.

• installed plug-ins blog and include for blogging. Remember to add this in the 'excluded pages' setting.

!(^|:)start$! 

• installed plug-ins imgpaste, which is really useful to copy down something on ipad and paste here
• installed katex, by add-in the following to meta.html in conf/ folder
