The main research directions are China's third theory of Zongji Tibetan doctrine and Indian Mahayana Buddhism meso-ideology, especially a deep study of the meso-doctrine of Yingcheng Zhongguan, a representative of the two middle schools of India's mid-level mesozoism. The doctoral dissertation "Research on the Thought of the Mean of the Moon" is mainly through the interpretation of the Tibetan translations of the representative work of the Moon, "Into the Middle", and the interpretation of Sanskrit documents such as the "Ming Sentence Theory" and "The Thinning of the Theory of Entering the Bodhidharma" to accurately grasp the month. On the basis of the so-called meso-idea, I conducted a comparative study with the three theories of Ji Zang, the master of meso-ideology in China, and made a more in-depth comparison in methodology and critical criticism. Yue said that the theorist is a famous Indian Buddhist scholar in the seventh century, which has a great influence on the later Indian Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism. He was praised by Master Tsongkhapa as the master who can correctly inherit the righteous views of the pioneer of the Mahayana Buddhism, and designated his The masterpiece "Into the Middle" is one of the five major theories of the Gelug monks.

Sanskrit Verses from Candrakīrti's Triśaraṇasaptati Cited in the Munimatālaṃkāra
The present paper provides newly available Sanskrit fragments (11½ verses) from the Triśaraṇasaptati attributed to Candrakīrti '"`UNIQ--ref-00000046-QINU`"' These verses are found in the Sanskrit manuscript of Abhayākaraguptaʼs Munimatālaṃkāra.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000047-QINU`"'
The Triśaraṇasaptati is a small versified work consisting 68 ślokas, the full text of which is preserved only in Tibetan translation. We find two versions (i.e. recensions) of the Triśaraṇasaptati in all the Tanjurs. The two versions are almost the same, having been translated by the same translation team (Atiśa and Rin chen bzang po).
Sorensen translated the Tibetan text into English and added to them six verses (12, 13, 33, 45, 46, and 47) in Sanskrit traced in the form of quotations in other works. Sorensenʼs English translation is for the most part faithful to the Tibetan text. The Tibetan translation itself, when compared with the Sanskrit original, is seen on occasion to be imprecise (see below, "Philological Remarks").
Other quotations from the Triśaraṇasaptati have been found in two passages in the Munimatālaṃkāra: Passage A (Skt. Ms. 7v1-4; Tib. D 82a7-b3; verses 1, 34, 51, 54, 55, 67) in Munimatālaṃkāra chapter 1 (the Bodhicittāloka chapter)'"`UNIQ--ref-00000048-QINU`"' and Passage B (Skt. 132r1-3; Tib. D 219a5-b1; 7-9ab, 22-23) in chapter 3 (the Aṣṭābhisamayāloka chapter). When we collate these 11½ verses with the 6 verses independently collected by Sorensen, the total number becomes 17½, which is about 26% of the whole text of the Triśaraṇasaptati. (Kano and Xuezhu, introductory remarks, 4)
