Claim
Tony Yeu Yu
Correction
This misspells the Caltech mathematician’s name. His name is Tony Yue Yu, not “Tony Yeu Yu.”
Full reasoning
Caltech’s official faculty profile identifies this mathematician as Tony Yue Yu, and a Caltech news article about his work does the same. In other words, the post appears to be referring to a real Caltech professor, but gives his name incorrectly.
This is a straightforward name error, not a disputed point:
- Caltech PMA faculty page: “Tony Yue Yu”
- Caltech news article: “New professor of mathematics Tony Yue Yu”
So the text “Tony Yeu Yu” is incorrect; the correct name is Tony Yue Yu.
