Stijn J. van Tongeren

As of September 2018 I am heading a junior research group on "Exact Results in Extended Holography" as part of the Emmy Noether program, funded by the DFG.

I am also a principal investigator in the graduate school Rethinking Quantum Field Theory.

Our group studies aspects of integrability in AdS/CFT, more specifically: integrable deformations of sigma models, their applications in string theory and AdS/CFT, and twist deformations in noncommutative field theory, in particular applied to 4d maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.

Group members:

Me
Khalil Idiab (PhD student, 2020-)
Daniel Krogmann (MSc student, 2024-)

Former members:

Anton Pribytok (Postdoc, 2022-2023, now Postdoc at the University of Padova)
Andrea Fontanella (Postdoc, 2019-2021, now Postdoc at Perimeter Institute)
Tim Meier (PhD student, 2020-2024, now a Postdoc at University of Santiago de Compostela)
Yannik Zimmermann (PhD student, 2019-2023)

Please note that I am unfortunately not able to reply to requests regardings internships, PhD positions, etc., from individuals I have not met.
