Ep. 81 : Conversation with Ainda Sinha –Quantum Field Theory, Superstrings & Ins'pi'rations


Listen Later

Aninda Sinha is a theoretical physicist and a professor at

Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru: https://chep.iisc.ac.in/Personnel/asinha.html

 

He works at the interface of quantum field theory,

superstrings and mathematical physics. In this episode, we explore his
intellectual journey and discuss his recent work that led to a new series on pi
generalizing Madava’s series.
