Henrique Gomes Research Interests Along with collaborators Tim Koslowski and Sean Gryb of Perimeter Institute (at the time), I developed a very different formulation of general relativity. In truth, it is not only a different formulation, but a different theory, as it only matches general relativity for a given family of spacetimes. Shape Dynamics is a metric theory of gravity, but formulated as a gauge theory of spatial diffeomporphisms and local spatial conformal transformations.

Xiaochuan Lu Research Interests My research interest lies in understanding particle physics not explained by the Standard Model (SM). I use both phenomenological and formal approaches. On the phenomenological side, I have been focused on two directions. One is studying how to use effective field theories (EFTs) more efficiently, especially the SM EFT. This provides a greatly simplified way of investigating the consequences of high-energy models on low-energy observables. The other is to stud…

Markus Luty Research Interests My main research interest is in the theory of elementary particles, concentrating on physics beyond the standard model. Topics include supersymmetry breaking, extra dimensions, and non-perturbative physics. I have also worked on gravity and cosmology, for example the cosmological constant problem and consistent infrared modifications of Einstein gravity.

Another branch of my research is centered on extracting model-independent information from LHC data, with emphasis on Higgs and top …

Albert Schwarz Research Interests The thrust of Professor Schwarz's work in mathematical physics has been to apply topology to physics. In this aim he anticipated some of the work of the physicist Edward Witten. His most important result, joint with Belavin, Polyakov, and Tyupkin, was the discovery of instantons, which are solutions to classical gauge field equations that are localized in four Euclidean dimensions. Although they are Euclidean objects, instantons manifest themselves in 4-dime…

John Terning Research Interests My research has focused primarily on quantum field theory and particle physics phenomenology. My goal is to address some of the fundamental questions of particle physics: What is the source of electroweak symmetry breaking? Why are there different flavors of quarks and leptons? Why do they have different masses? To answer these questions I have worked on supersymmetry, particle cosmology, and precision electroweak tests of the standard model.

Chris Verhaaren Research Interests I am interested in the extensions of the standard model of particle physics that address some of its outstanding puzzles. In particular, I have spent some time thinking about the gauge hierarchy problem and the nature of dark matter. The intersection of quantum field theory and gravity through the AdS/CFT correspondence and further investigations of how we use quantum field theory to address physical questions also interest me.

Andrew Waldron Research Interests Professor Andrew Waldron's research is devoted to a broad range of problems in theoretical and mathematical physics. In particular he has made an important contribution to the conjectured Banks-Fishler-Shenker-Susskind (BFSS) matrix model of string theory and M-theory. String theory is a proposed perturbative theory that would unify all of the fundamental forces of physics; in other words it is a
