Research interests

Research efforts are mainly focused at investigation of M-theory by field-theoretical methods with further applications to a description of conformal field theories and their RG flows in the context of gauge/gravity duality. The main research tools to address these problems are provided by the so-called exceptional field theory, that is a U-duality covariant formulation of supergravity developed by Edvard and collaborators a decade ago. Based on this approach are more recent results, that include a full T-covariant formulation of the T-duality orbit of the NS5B-brane (including exotic states); an algorithm to deform 11D supergravity solutions generalizing Yang-Baxter deformations; discovery of a class of tri-vector deformations dual to non-supersymmetric exactly marginal deformations of SCFT's; formulation of a generalization of 11D supergravity similar to generalized 10D supergravity related to a reformulation of the kappa-symmetry constraint of a Green-Schwarz superstring.
