Osama KHLAIF is working on formal high-energy theory.
He earned a master degree at ICTP Trieste with a thesis on Chern-Simons-Witten theory and knot-invariants on 3-manifolds. He also holds an M2 in mathematical physics from Dijon where he worked on localisation in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories on the 3-sphere.
He receives his PhD in 2025 from the University of Birmingham, where his research is on various problems related to supersymmetric QCD, quantum K-theory, and the moduli spaces of instantons. Another project concerns the AGT correspondence.
