Research Interests

From July 31 2019 to July 31 2020 I have worked on three general topics:
the study of mathematical properties and applications of
supersymmetric or topological quantum field theories in various dimensions,
of topologically twisted versions of holography and M-theory
and of intergrability in two-dimensional quantum field theory.
