Interests

Mathematical aspects of string theory and quantum field theory, such as

• Symmetries and anomalies
• Geometric and algebraic structures associated to supersymmetric quantum field theories

• List of Lectures in Japanese and/or in English

• Errata of published lectures

• Most papers can be found at INSPIRE.

• Articles not on the arXiv

• Transparencies and video recordings of my old talks

• 日本語による解説記事

Miscellany

• If you'd like to work with me as a student, here are some very important bureaucratic details.
• 以前学部学生さんむけに書いた雑多な文章はこちら。情報は古くなっているのでご注意ください。
• 博士論文執筆の際にお願いしたいことおよび(博士/修士/普通の)論文執筆の際にお願いしたいこと、その二 なるものも書きました。発表のときに気をつけたらよいことも書きました。勉強から研究へというのも書きました。

• I maintain unofficial pages hosting slides presented at past Strings conferences.

• I wrote an instruction how to use git with Overleaf so that you can work locally on your computer a TeX project hosted on Overleaf.

• I wrote an instruction of how you can post a Chinese/Japanese/Korean TeX file to the arxiv.

• I made a small program spires.app to manage PDF files downloaded from arxiv.org.

• I ported MenuMeters to El Capitan and later.

• I wrote a small program which plays sound whenever you type the keyboard. You will be making a spontaneous piece of music whenever you write anything on your Mac.

• I made a Javascript implementation of Langton's ant.

• I have accounts on Twitter, StackExchange, GitHub and Facebook. My professional profiles can be found on INSPIRE or on Google Scholar.
