Self-introduction
My research focuses on quantum aspects of gravity and exploring their relation to quantum information theory and condensed matter physics. Topics include holography, AdS/CFT, string theory, black hole, quantum cosmology, relation to matrix models and quantum chaos. Recently, I am particularly interested in how to extract the microscopic, discrete structure of quantum gravity from gravitational path integrals, aiming to understand implications to low-energy effective field theory.
