Research Interests and Projects

My research interests comprise theoretical particle physics and its ramifications, in particular quantum field theory, gauge theories, supersymmetry, thermal field theory, and cosmology.

My main current research activities involve

Quantum field theory at finite temperature and density
which is the theoretical tool to analytically study quantum matter under extreme conditions, e.g. ultrarelativistic temperatures and densities that existed in the early universe in the first second after the Big Bang. Of particular interest is the high-temperature regime of quantum chromodynamics which is supposed to describe the quark-gluon plasma that filled the universe during the first 10 μsec's. This form of matter is now believed to be produced fleetingly in "Little Bangs" in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collider experiments such as RHIC and also expected to exist in the interior of (some) neutron stars.
Quantum theory of (supersymmetric) solitons
In recent years, major progress in the understanding of non-perturbative aspects of (supersymmetric) field (and string) theories has been achieved by exploiting dualities in which quantized (supersymmetric) solitons play a central role. Initially it was thought that supersymmetric solitons saturating the so-called BPS bound are protected from quantum corrections, but in collaboration with Peter van Nieuwenhuizen from the State Univ. of New York at Stony Brook, we have found, and are still working out, a number of subtleties and nontrivial results, in particular for 1+1-dimensional supersymmetric kinks (domain walls) and 3+1-dimensional monopoles. Other objects of interest are supersymmetric "confined monopoles" which permit analytical studies with relevance to the outstanding confinement problem of nonabelian gauge theories.

Publications

Since 1984 (the start of my doctoral studies), I have written or co-authored over 100 scientific publications, most of which are available on-line (at least as arXiv.org e-prints) through:
