Luis Fernando AldayFRS is an Argentine-British mathematician, and the Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford and Head of the Mathematical Physics Group.
Alday was born on 17 October 1977 in San Rafael, Mendoza, but he spent most of his youth in Arrecifes. He was the eldest child among three siblings.[1] He graduated from the Balseiro Institute at the National University of Cuyo in Argentina in 2001,[2] after studying for the first two years at the National University of La Plata.[3] He completed his PhD at the International School for Advanced Studies in Trieste in 2004. He was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton for Spring 2007, and from September 2008 to September 2010.[4] At the IAS, he collaborated with Juan Maldacena, a fellow Argentine physicist and Balseiro graduate. Alday joined the University of Oxford in 2010 after post-doctorate studies at the IAS and Utrecht University. Since then, he has been associated with Hertford College.[1] His research interests include a bootstrap approach to conformal field theories and string theory, several aspects of the AdS/CFT duality, four-dimensional N=2 super-symmetric theories and their relation to conformal field theories, and the exact computation of observables in super-symmetric gauge theories. He received a Royal Society Wolfson Fellowship in 2012, and the Whitehead Prize of the London Mathematical Society in 2013. Alday has also received two grants from the European Research Council.[5]
アルデイの研究は、量子場の理論や量子重力といった物理学の分野への応用のための数学的ツールの提供に焦点を当てている。2020年、彼はラウズ・ボール数学教授に任命され、数理物理学グループの責任者となった。[ 6 ]アルデイは2022年5月に王立協会フェローに選出された。 [ 7 ]彼は2つの画期的な論文によってその地位を認められた。1つ目の論文は、「強結合における平面超対称ヤン=ミルズ理論の散乱振幅」を計算する手法を提供する。2つ目の論文は、アルデイにちなんで名付けられ、ダヴィデ・ガイオットと立川雄二と共同で開発されたAGT対応の概念を導入し、「4次元超対称ゲージ理論を2次元共形場理論に関連付ける」ものである。[ 8 ]王立協会に選出された当時、彼はウォダム・カレッジのフェローであり、オックスフォード数学研究所に所属していた。[ 9 ] [ 10 ]
