Statement of Interest:


  My main interests are in various aspects of string theory and field theory.
I have worked on numerical Calabi-Yau metrics and hermitian Yang-Mills (YM) connections, branes at singularities, D-brane stability and monodromy, geometric engineering and local mirror symmetry, tadpoles and superpotentials in Type IIB orientifolds, T-duality, and Wilson loops.
