I am writing to apply for the financial support for the lattice meeting 2022. I am a graduate student at Syracuse University working under the supervision of Prof. Simon Catterall and expect to defend my Ph.D. by July 2022.</div>

My research interests lie in lattice holography, lattice quantum gravity, different aspects of quantum information science. During my Ph.D., I developed techniques for the lattice realization of the AdS-CFT correspondence and worked on the Euclidean dynamical
triangulation of four-dimensional gravity. On the other hand, I explored the lower-dimensional lattice gauge theory model of gravity with tensor network models.
<div>I am an active member of `Foundations of Quantum Computing Gauge Theories and Quantum Gravity'-the QuLat collaboration.
</div>
With some of the members in the collaboration, I am currently investigating the SO(4) invariant lattice fermionic model with four fermi interactions, and we investigated some aspects of the model using IBMQ quantum computers.</div>

<span style="font-size:12pt"></span><span style="font-size:12pt"></span>As all my current works are developed using the lattice field theory, the lattice meeting is the conference where I will be able to connect with people primarily interested in these kinds
of physics problems. As an aspiring lattice theorist, it would be an excellent opportunity for me to attend the meeting, and any financial support would be of great help. Thank you in advance for your consideration of my application.<br>
