Research interests

My activity concerns theoretical problems connected to the physics of correlated electron systems in low dimensions. In particular I have been dealing with the physics of high-temperature cuprate and pnictide superconductors, graphene, and more recently conventional superconductors at strong disorder. The main topics of my work can be summarized as:

• Out-of-equilibrium spectroscopies
• Superconducting collective modes
• Multiband physics in pnictides
• Superconductor-Insulator transition in conventional superconductors
• Kosterlitz-Thouless behavior in quasi-2D systems
• Spectroscopic and optical properties of graphene
• Unconventional magnetism due to Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions
