Description:

Field theories with N = 2 supersymmetry has been a fertile subject for theoretical physicists and mathematics for quite some time. Although it is not relevant for describing the real world, having this amount of supersymmetry allows many exact computations. So this is very useful theoretical playground. In this lectures I will overview some basic aspects of N=2 theories in four and two dimensions and will discuss some recent developments in this area.

Prerequisite:

Quantum Field Theory, String Theory and a basic knowledge of Geometry and Topology

Profile:

I am a theoretical high energy physicist and have been worked on various topics on quantum field theory, string theory, black hole physics and holographic principle. The broad questions my research aims to address is: what are the building blocks of spacetime and matter? String theory provides a potential framework to answer these questions because it can unify quantum theory with gravity in a very natural way. At present time, my main focus is studying quantum aspects of black holes.
