My research areas are String Theory, classical/quantum aspects of Black Holes and Cosmology. I leave you here to check out what they are all about.

  • String Theory
  • Black Holes
  • Cosmology

  • You can find here the papers that I have written in these areas.

    ( By the way, the word black hole was first used in Calcutta (now known as Kolkata) way back in 1756. After capturing Fort William, Nawab of Bengal, Siraj ud Daulah kept British prisoners of war in a place which was known as The Black Hole of Calcutta. Check out here.)

  • Ph.Ds:
