Department of Physics, Graduate School of Science
I am currently enrolled in the Graduate School of Science, majoring in Physics, with a specialization in particle theory.
I am interested in quantum gravity theories, including the quantum theory of black holes, as well as quantum field theory, which is the fundamental language of particle theory.
In particular, I am focused on conformal field theory, a special class of quantum field theory that has excellent properties and serves as an essential tool for analyzing quantum gravity theories, critical phenomena, and more. For example, the AdS/CFT correspondence establishes a relationship between quantum gravity theories and conformal field theories, and studying conformal field theory directly contributes to the analysis of quantum gravity theories. Additionally, while traditional quantum field theory often relies on perturbation theory for analysis, conformal field theory can classify critical phenomena without relying on perturbation theory.
I aim to elucidate the structure of conformal field theory and deepen the understanding of quantum gravity theories and quantum field theory. I am also considering incorporating perspectives from quantum information theory and exploring applications in condensed matter theory.
