My
research is on the interface of quantum physics
and mathematics. This is a very rich topic. On the physics side it involves fundamental questions in
(supersymmetric) gauge theory and string theory. On the mathematics side there are
often deep relations to geometry, topology and algebra.
My students are:
-
Omar Kidwai, University of Oxford, 2018 (now at the University of Toronto)
-
Philipp Rueter, Heriot-Watt University
I am giving lectures at:
- Geometric Representation Theory, Topological Field Theory, and Low-Dimensional Topology, ICMS, June 2019
- British Mathematical Colloquium, Lancaster, April 2019
- Challenges at the Interface of Hitchin Systems and String Theory, SCGP, March 2019
