Statement of Interest:
An overarching theme of my research is the computation of
D-brane superpotentials. This involves the computation of
the A-infinity structure of the derived category of
coherent sheaves or matrix factorizations of a Calabi-Yau
singularity. Once the D-brane superpotential corresponding
to a Calabi-Yau singularity is known, many interesting
checks of the AdS/CFT correspondence can be made.
