Jorge Eduardo Santos plans to study various aspects of general relativity, quantum gravity, gravitational aspects of string theory, and numerical relativity. He is particularly interested in understanding how to derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of certain supersymmetric black holes with anti-de Sitter asymptotic from field theory considerations.
