Welcome to my antiquated web page. This webpage gets updated about once a year, as you can deduce for yourself by just looking at it, or
comapring this lovely picture with more
recent ones, or with how I actually look like. I do have a variety of other
webpages, some public, some
super-secret. To get more updated information, just ask me. Now back to our feature presentation...
Research interests
String Theory, M-Theory, Matrix Theory, AdS/CFT,...
Cosmology: inflation and alternatives, stringy scenarios, time dependence in
string theory.
Quantum Field Theory, including its many uses in the physics of elementary particles
and of condensed matter systems.
Non-local models: Little String Theories, Non-Commutative Field
Theories.
Whatever else looks interesting...
More detailed information can be found in my
list of publications
Recently I am trying to compile a list of what every student
should know , suggestions welcome.
