Research
- My area of interest is Quantum Field theory and (super)string theory. During my PhD, I have worked on aspects of string perturbation theory, Duality symmetries in string theory and its connection to string theory. Later in my post-doc days, I have worked on areas in Quantum Field Theory. In particular, I have worked on open quantum systems, supersymmetric index theorem and soft theorem in flat spacetime. Currently, I am interested in flat space scattering amplitudes. I am also trying to learn the SPT phases of matter.
