Carlo Meneghelli

Carlo Meneghelli is an Associate Professor at the Department of Mathematical, Physical and Computer Sciences, University of Parma. He holds a PhD from Humboldt University of Berlin (2011) and has held postdoctoral positions at DESY Hamburg, Simons Center for Geometry and Physics (Stony Brook), and University of Oxford.

His research focuses on mathematical aspects of quantum field theory, particularly:

• Superconformal field theories (SCFTs)
• Bootstrap methods in theoretical physics
• Integrable models and Yangian symmetry
• Relations between supersymmetric gauge theories and geometric structures
• Free field realizations in algebraic frameworks

He teaches courses in:

• Quantum Field Theory
• Probability Methods in Physics
• Highlights in Theoretical Physics

His recent publications (2020-2025) demonstrate expertise in bootstrap techniques, superconformal structures, and connections between vertex operator algebras (VOAs) and gauge theories. The work spans both theoretical development (W-algebras, nilpotent operators) and concrete applications (Wilson line defects, Kaluza-Klein functions).

His scientific collaborations include notable researchers such as Christopher Beem, Leonardo Rastelli, and Wolfger Peelaers. Current research explores the intersection of integrability, supersymmetry, and conformal symmetry through advanced mathematical methods.
