Introduction:
Hi! I'm a PhD student at the University of Oxford in the Particle Theory group working on string theory phenomenology, having previously acquired a Masters in Theoretical Physics from Durham and a separate Masters in Applied Mathematics at Cambridge (Part III). I am especially interested in various areas of theoretical physics around quantum field theory and increasingly string theory.
Contributions:
- Complete rewrites: Cluster decomposition, Coleman–Mandula theorem, Correlation function, Effective action, Elitzur's theorem, Fermion doubling, Furry's theorem, Haag–Łopuszański–Sohnius theorem, Nielsen–Ninomiya theorem, Partition function, Peccei–Quinn theory, RNS formalism, Staggered fermion, Strong CP problem, 't Hooft loop, Theta vacuum, Wilson loop.
- Created articles: Dirac–Kähler equation, Polyakov loop, Pure 4D N = 1 supergravity, Wilson action.
- Sections written: Parity (physics)#Fixing the global symmetries.
- Many minor edits on other articles as well.
- Number of stubs unstubbed: 11.
- Articles written: 21.
- Classified hundreds of physics stubs.
- Improved references in many articles.
Current and future work:
- I've been working for around 3 months on the matter-coupled 4D N=1 supergravity article (when considered in full, it's so the most complicated theory I ever studied); it should be done soon.
- My dual projects are improving Wikiedias coverage of supersymmetry and supergravity, along with its coverage of string theory topics.
- Currently focusing on writing an article for 4D N=1 supergravity, and possibly 4D N=1 global supersymmetry. Got articles lined up for GKP mechanism, KKLT, and LVS as well.
- Articles to improve: phenomenology (physics).
- Articles to create: D=11 maximal supergravity, D=10 IIB supergravity, D=10 IIA supergravity, GKP flux compactification, higher form symmetry, KKLT scenario, Large volume scenario, Majorana–Weyl spinor, Wilsonian effective action.
- Long term articles to create: chiral condensate, discrete gauge theory, global symmetry, high energy physics (HEP), low dimensional QFT, superconformal QFT, supersymmetric QFT, zero dimensional QFT.
