Research in theoretical gravitational physics will be continued, and the following topics will be investigated: A. Decoherence and Quantum to Classical Transition B. Noise and Fluctuations in Gravitation and Cosmology C. Black Hole Thermodynamics and Backreaction D. Galaxy Formation and Phase Transitions in the Early Universe E. Gravity as an Effective Theory F. Stochasticity and Complexity in Cosmology The concepts and techniques of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and the formalisms of quantum stochastic field theory in curved spacetime will be further developed and applied to problems on the foundational aspects of quantum and statistical mechanics, gravitation theory, general relativity, cosmology and black hole physics. The goals of this work will be probing the deeper structures of the physical laws under extreme conditions and understanding their manifestations in the origin and dynamics of the Universe.

理论引力物理方面的研究将继续进行，研究的主题包括：A.退相干和量子到经典跃迁B.引力和宇宙学中的噪声和涨落C.黑洞热力学和逆反应D.早期宇宙中的星系形成和相变E.引力作为一种有效理论F.宇宙学中的随机性和复杂性非平衡统计力学的概念和技术以及弯曲时空中的量子随机场论的形式将得到进一步发展和应用量子与统计力学、万有引力理论、广义相对论、宇宙学和黑洞物理学基础问题。这项工作的目标将是在极端条件下探索物理定律的深层结构，并理解它们在宇宙起源和动力学中的表现。
