Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Quantum field theory
  • Mathematical analysis

His scientific interests lie mostly in Quantum mechanics, Mathematical physics, String field theory, Non-critical string theory and Gauge theory. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Theoretical physics and Quantum mechanics. David J. Gross has included themes like Gravitation and Classical mechanics in his Mathematical physics study.

His String field theory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Saddle point and Heterotic string theory. The various areas that David J. Gross examines in his Non-critical string theory study include Relationship between string theory and quantum field theory, Type I string theory, String cosmology, Compactification and Scattering amplitude. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory, Quantum gauge theory, Supersymmetric gauge theory, Introduction to gauge theory, Gauge anomaly and Gauge fixing is strongly linked to Lattice gauge theory.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

David J. Gross mainly focuses on Theoretical physics, Quantum mechanics, Mathematical physics, Quantum chromodynamics and String theory. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gauge anomaly, Gauge fixing, Statistical physics and Quantum field theory in addition to Theoretical physics. In the field of Mathematical physics, his study on Invariant overlaps with subjects such as Syk.

His research in Quantum chromodynamics tackles topics such as Standard Model which are related to areas like Coupling constant, Quark and Gauge boson. His String theory research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Scattering amplitude, Scattering and Quantum gravity, Fundamental interaction, Quantum cosmology. His study explores the link between Impact parameter and topics such as String field theory that cross with problems in Classical mechanics.

Between 2002 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A generalization of Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (273 citations)
  • The bulk dual of SYK: cubic couplings (181 citations)
  • All point correlation functions in SYK (150 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Quantum field theory
  • Mathematical analysis

David J. Gross mainly investigates Mathematical physics, AdS/CFT correspondence, 1/N expansion, Fermion and Conformal field theory. His work on Heterotic string theory is typically connected to Lyapunov exponent as part of general Mathematical physics study, connecting several disciplines of science. David J. Gross interconnects Structure, Correlation function, MAJORANA and Invariant in the investigation of issues within AdS/CFT correspondence.

His 1/N expansion research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pure mathematics, Feynman diagram, Saddle point and Conformal symmetry. His Fermion research includes themes of Scattering amplitude, Partition function, Potential energy and Type. His study in Conformal field theory is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Renormalization group, Fixed point and Free field.
