http://inspirehep.net/record/256576?ln=en First of all, I would like to extend my deepest appreciation to my advisor, Peter van Nieuwenhuizen, a teacher, a great physicist and a gentleman, whose patient guidance and crystal clear lectures I have benefited a great deal from, whose perfectionistic style I should follow, and whose enthusiasm in quest for the higher truth set goals I shall aspire.
Almost as important is the influence of Steve Kivelson, whose physical intuition has been most inspiring for me. His creativity is deeply admired and his friendship sincerely valued.
My special gratitude extends to C. N. Yang. The beauty of the laws of physics revealed to me in a lecture he delivered in Shanghai set me the determination of devoting my life as a physicist at the age of fifteen, and I was most fortunate to become a Ph.D. student in the institute under his directorship. Through our conversations and his lectures, I have not only learned a great deal of physics from him, but I have also learned to recognize the true value of physics. I thank him for his most unique advice.
