This project explores the unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity through string theory, focusing on the gauge/gravity duality. It aims to develop new mathematical approaches to enhance understanding of fundamental forces and their interrelations.
While the three sub-atomic forces are described by quantum mechanics, the fourth known force, gravity, is described by Einstein's theory of general relativity.
These two very successful theories are incompatible, and understanding how to unify them in a single framework is an outstanding problem.
String theory is the most prominent candidate for a unified theory of all forces of Nature.
The most important conceptual breakthrough that emerged from string theory is Maldacena's conjectured duality…
