Short Description

The group carry out research on string theory, fundamental aspects of field theory, as well as relevant mathematical physics subjects. More specifically, current research focuses on:

• Correspondence of gauge theories to string theory
• Non-perturbative aspects and duality in string and field theories
• Supergravity theories describing the behavior of string theoreis and M-theories at low energies
• Fundamental aspects of black holes physics and cosmology
• Conformal field theories and integratable systems
