Aninda Sinha (Centre for High energy Physics) receives ICTP Prize for 2016


The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) has awarded its 2016 ICTP Prize to Aninda Sinha, Associate Professor in the Centre for High Energy Physics. This Prize has been awarded for his “Key contributions to aspects of quantum field theory using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular, the development of holographic c-theorems for strongly coupled theories which led to the first c-theorem in odd dimensions, an important breakthrough in the study of hydrodynamic properties of strongly coupled systems with holographic duals, of the holographic entanglement entropy, and in the conformal-bootstrap program.”
