Research Interest:

String theory, gauge theories. In particular:
  • Perturbative string theory: physical applications and the mathematical structure of higher loop string diagrams;
  • Black holes in string theory: emergent geometry from string amplitudes and microstate geometries;
  • (String) Phenomenology: low energy limit of string amplitudes, effective actions, D-brane models, higher dimensional models;
  • Gauge/gravity correspondence: the AdS/CFT duality beyond the supergravity approximation, (non)conformal deformations of this duality.
    • A complete list of my papers can be found on INSPIRE.

    Teaching and administration:

  • Relativistic Waves & Quantum Fields (PHY415).
  • I am the organizer of the Graduate program in String/Field Theory at Queen Mary.
  • Supervisor for BSc and master projects.
  • I am the director of the Euromaster programme.
