Supersymmetry and Supergravity: New Approaches and Applications (2019–2023)
Abstract:
Supersymmetry and supergravity play crucial roles in modern developments in fundamental particle physics and cosmology. They also have extremely rich connections with many branches of mathematical physics. Major conceptual questions in the description of general supergravity-matter couplings are still unsolved. Based on our recent results, this project aims to systematically address this problem and greatly advance our understanding of supersymmetric quantum field, gravity, and higher-spin theories. By performing state of the art analysis in supergravity and holographic (A)dS dualities, we will advance our understanding of quantum gravity, black holes, and cosmology placing Australia at the forefront of these important research fields.
