String Theory
From
Carlos Mafra’s research is focused on the computation of superstring scattering amplitudes at higher genus and higher multiplicity. In particular, he is using new superspace techniques based on the pure spinor formulation to try to uncover the underlying simplicity of string amplitudes and their field-theory counterparts.
