معرفی
Professor Kostas Skenderis holds the Chair in Mathematical Physics at the University of Southampton, affiliated with the School of Mathematical Sciences and the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. He is a member of the String Theory and Holography research group and the Southampton Theory Astrophysics and Gravity (STAG) Research Centre.
He has extensive involvement in research projects funded by prestigious organizations such as the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), Royal Society, European Union, and Leverhulme Trust. Notable projects include 'New Frontiers in Particle Physics, Cosmology and Gravity' and 'Holographic Theory for the Very Early Universe,' demonstrating his focus on foundational theoretical physics and cosmology.
His research interests encompass theoretical physics, mathematical physics, cosmology, quantum gravity, string theory, and holography. He explores topics like AdS/CFT correspondence, de Sitter spacetime, conformal field theories (CFT), and renormalization techniques, often bridging high-energy physics with gravitational and cosmological phenomena.
In 2023, he served as an invited speaker for the 'The ambient space formalism: CFT at finite temperature' event. He currently supervises five PhD students in Mathematical Sciences and Physics, fostering the next generation of researchers in his field.
Professor Skenderis collaborates across interdisciplinary projects, including the STAG Research Centre and the Physics Theory Consolidated Grant. His work addresses diverse challenges, from black hole dynamics to inflationary cosmology, leveraging holographic methods and advanced mathematical frameworks.
