Ooguri is a theoretical
physicist working on quantum field theory and quantum gravity. He is
developing theoretical tools to apply superstring theory to fundamental
questions in high energy physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
His research strategy is
to discover hidden mathematical structures in quantum field theory and
superstring theory and to exploit them to invent new theoretical tools to
investigate these theories. In particular, he has
developed the topological string theory to compute Feynman diagrams in
superstring theory and used it to solve mysterious quantum mechanical
properties of black holes. He has also worked on conformal field theories in
two dimensions, D-branes in Calabi-Yau
manifolds, the AdS/CFT correspondence, and
properties of supersymmetric gauge theories and
their relations to superstring theory. |
