Thomas Hartman is a Professor of Physics in the College of Arts and Sciences at Cornell University. He received his A.B. in Physics from Princeton University in 2004 and his Ph.D. in Physics from Harvard University in 2010. His professional journey includes being a Member of the School of Natural Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study (2010-2013), Research Associate at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, UCSB (2013-2014), Assistant Professor at Cornell University (2014-2020), Associate Professor at Cornell University (2020-2022), and Professor at Cornell University (2022-present). Hartman's research focuses on theoretical aspects of quantum gravity and quantum field theory, with particular emphasis on black hole information and strongly interacting quantum fields. His work explores four major interconnected areas: gauge/gravity duality (examining how quantum field theory degrees of freedom organize into fluctuating spacetime), black hole information paradox (investigating the relationship between classical black hole solutions and quantum statistical systems), new approaches to quantum field theory using dualities and entanglement dynamics, and the physics of de Sitter space with implications for early universe cosmology. His research employs techniques from string theory, holographic duality, general relativity, and quantum information theory. Analysis of Hartman's publication record reveals a strong focus on resolving fundamental questions in quantum gravity, particularly through the development of replica wormhole techniques that address the black hole information paradox. His work spans both highly mathematical approaches to quantum gravity and connections to potentially observable phenomena, with increasing emphasis on connections between quantum information science and gravitational physics in recent years. Member, School of Natural Sciences, Institute for Advanced Study, 2010-2013 Hartman has advised graduate students including Jeevan Chandra Namburi and Wan Zhen Chua, contributing to the next generation of theoretical physicists. His research group actively investigates the emergence of spacetime from quantum information principles and develops new mathematical frameworks for understanding quantum gravity. The group maintains strong connections with other leading institutions through collaborative projects and participates in major theoretical physics initiatives including Snowmass planning for future research directions in high energy physics. Hartman's research program represents a vital bridge between abstract theoretical concepts in quantum gravity and potential experimental tests, working to develop frameworks that could ultimately connect quantum gravity to observable phenomena in both high-energy physics and cosmological observations.
