Research areas
Tackling the “big questions” of the universe: What is it made of? How did it begin? How will it end?
Our most powerful theoretical framework describes elementary particle interactions, many-body systems dynamics, and critical phenomena.
Refining and reformulating the conceptual and mathematical underpinnings of quantum theory.
Exploring and utilizing the unique quantum laws such as the uncertainty principle, quantum error correction, and quantum complexity.
The behaviour of systems with many particles can be very different from that of the particles that make it up.
Areas of space where gravity is extremely strong can serve as a natural testing ground for gravitational theories.
Spotlight on research
Perimeter creates special research initiatives aimed at further developing new ideas. These initiatives are strategically chosen and run for defined periods.
