Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Quantum field theory
  • Electron

Quantum mechanics, Gauge theory, Mathematical physics, Classical mechanics and Quantum electrodynamics are his primary areas of study. His research investigates the connection with Quantum mechanics and areas like Limit which intersect with concerns in Chern–Simons theory and Mathematical Operators. His Gauge theory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Boson, Quantum field theory and Coupling constant.
