Research Interests
My research focuses on studying the mathematical structures of Quantum Field Theory (QFT). In particular, I am interested in various aspects of Topological QFTs, Supersymmetric QFTs, and Conformal Field Theories from String/M-theory with an emphasis on their geometric and algebraic structures.
