Our Broad Research Overview

We chase the universe through chalk dust and coffee stains,
arguing about strings, tensors, black holes, and symmetry at impossible hours.
Somewhere between bootstrap equations, quantum fields, and half-finished notebooks,
we hope to uncover why spacetime exists at all.

Mostly, though, we are just a group of physicists
trying to quantize the universe before the next deadline arrives.

The Aninda Sinha group explores fundamental questions at the intersection of quantum theory, gravity, information, and cosmology. Our research combines analytical methods, modern computational techniques, and deep mathematical structures to understand the principles governing nature at its most fundamental level.

Quantum Field Theory

We study the structure and dynamics of quantum fields, including conformal field theories, anomalies, renormalization, effective field theories, and strongly coupled systems. Our work spans both foundational aspects and applications across high-energy physics and cosmology.

String Theory & Holography

Our research investigates how spacetime and gravity emerge from microscopic quantum degrees of freedom. We explore string theory, AdS/CFT correspondence, black hole physics, quantum gravity, and the relationship between geometry, entanglement, and information.

Conformal & S-Matrix Bootstrap

Using symmetry, unitarity, analyticity, and consistency conditions, we develop non-perturbative approaches to quantum field theories and scattering amplitudes. Bootstrap techniques provide powerful tools for constraining strongly interacting systems and uncovering universal structures in quantum theories.

Cosmology

We work on problems related to the early universe, inflation, primordial fluctuations, dark energy, and the quantum origins of cosmic structure. Our research connects cosmology with quantum field theory, gravity, and high-energy physics.

Tensor Networks & Quantum Information

The group studies entanglement structures in quantum many-body systems using tensor-network methods and holography-inspired constructions. These approaches provide insights into emergent spacetime, strongly correlated systems, and quantum complexity.

Quantum Computing

We explore the role of quantum computation and quantum algorithms in theoretical physics, including quantum simulation, many-body dynamics, and tensor-network inspired approaches to quantum information processing.

Our work brings together ideas from physics, mathematics, and computation to develop new perspectives on quantum matter, spacetime, and the fundamental laws of the Universe.
