David Berenstein’s work deals primarily with the understanding of gravitational holography: how gravity in higher dimensions can be encoded in quantum field theories in low dimensions. In particular, he is interested in understanding the emergence of higher dimensional geometry from collective phenomena in quantum field theories.
