Research

• My recente research activity is carried on within the String Theory Group of our department.
• In particular, my main interests are in
  • String theory: D-branes;
  • Supergravity: gauge/gravity duality;
  • two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories.
• Publications (thanks to SLAC's HEP-Spires service).
• Curriculum vitae

Didactic activity, a.y. 2003/2004

• Introduction to Group Theory , for the ``Laurea Specialistica'' (~master) course in Physics of fundamental interactions
• I am a member of the committee that organizes "public relations & marketing" :-) for our Physics courses (Corso di laurea in Fisica). In particular, I am working on the WEB site studiarefisica.ph.unito.it (in italian).

Some recent talks
