معرفی
Professor Chris Hull is a renowned theoretical physicist at Imperial College London, holding the Chair in Theoretical Physics within the Department of Physics, Faculty of Natural Sciences. His research focuses on string theory, quantum gravity, and mathematical physics, with notable contributions to dualities, non-geometric backgrounds, and brane dynamics. He is an elected Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS).
Key research areas include string compactifications, generalized geometry, and the interplay between gravity and gauge theories. His work frequently explores T-duality, non-geometric fluxes, and exotic branes, with applications to black hole physics and holography.
Recent publications highlight advancements in homotopy transfer methods for effective field theories, magnetic field dynamics in star-forming regions, and the geometry of K3 surfaces. His contributions to heterotic/type II dualities and T-fold constructions have been pivotal in non-geometric string theory.
