Research

Topics:

  • QFTs in sectors of large charge
  • string theory (brane constructions, dualities)
  • supersymmetric gauge theories
  • relationships to integrable models

See also the institute webpage of Fields, Strings and Dualities.

My publications on INSPIRE.

Group Members

  • Dr. Meer Ashwinkumar (postdoc)
  • Adèle Le Borgne (PhD student)
  • Dr. Giacomo Sberveglieri (postdoc)

My research group is supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation.

Openings

    There are currently no openings.
    If you are interested in doing your master thesis in my group, please contact me (however, there is no funding available). For Master students at U. Bern, the prerequisite for doing a Master thesis with me is having passed the QFT I and ACTP exams with at least grade 5.

Seminar: Fields and Strings

Spring Semester: none (sabbatical)
Fall Semester 24: Thursdays 14:15-15:15 in room ExWi B116.
