Research interests
The research interests of Ali Fatemiabhari include the study of gauge/gravity dualities and their applications. He has used solution generation techniques to obtain smooth and analytic supergravity backgrounds dual to confining gauge field theories with the possibility of supersymmetry preservation. Another important subject is the utilization of different gravity backgrounds, dual to confining field theories, to study the composite Higgs models systematically. These models propose the idea of the Higgs particle being a composite state emerging from a new strongly coupled extension of the Standard Model. Due to the difficulties in directly analyzing the strongly coupled sectors in gauge theories, holographic methods are applied to extract information.
