I am a theoretical physicist working on aspects of quantum field theory and gravity that help reveal the mystery of the quantum theory of gravity. Some of the subjects that I have studied include
Gauge/Gravity duality; its origin, generalizations, and applications
Symmetries and algebraic structures in quantum field theories
Soluble (sectors of) models of quantum gravity
Apart from the above topics, I am also interested in exciting developments in other related fields such as the quantum information/quantum gravity program, the nonperturbative bootstrap program, generalized symmetries, black holes and compact objects (from both the high energy physics and the astrophysics points of view), and curious connections between high energy physics and condensed matter physics.
