Prof. DeWolfe is interested in string theory, quantum field theory, general relativity, and their connections with quantum information. Hs research focuses on the duality between quantum gravity and quantum field theory (the gauge/gravity or AdS/CFT correspondence) and following this duality in both directions: using gravity to learn about strongly coupled phenomena related to particle, nuclear and condensed matter physics, and using the structure of entanglement and quantum information in quantum systems to learn about quantum gravity.
