Research interests
I am mainly interested in strongly coupled Quantum Field Theories (QFTs). Currently my attention is focused on (d ≥ 3) Conformal Bootstrap Program and on the S-matrix/Form Factor Bootstrap Program. The Conformal Bootstrap attempts to isolate/classify conformal field theories (which describe the UV and IR fixed points of QFTs) and in turn to solve them numerically (or analytically). The S-matrix bootstrap instead attempts to obtain bounds on the space of allowed QFTs by studying the scattering of asymptotic states away from the fixed points.
