We develop mathematical theories to describe the fundamental properties of nature and explore their implications. Our activities include

  • Quantum Chromodynamics and collider phenomenology
  • Physics beyond the Standard Model
  • Particle astrophysics and cosmology
  • Gauge-string duality and holography
  • String theory and its phenomenology
  • Quantum field theory and quantum gravity

We have close links with our colleagues in experimental Particle Physics, Astrophysics, and in the  Mathematical Physics Group at the Maths Institute.
