Elementary Particle Theory

所提出的研究涉及膜的各个方面，超对称性和无质量的高自旋规范理论。 这些是10维弦理论和11维膜理论的关键组成部分，为描述包括引力在内的所有自然力提供了统一的框架。由于我们的世界是四维时空在这些更高维度中的嵌入，信息的编码可以是全息的，并且在高能量下可以产生新的对称性。该计划旨在寻求对这些新发展的更深层次的理解，并系统地研究更高维度的超引力理论。

The proposed research involves various aspects of branes, Supersymmetry and massless higher spin gauge theories. These are key ingredients of string theory in ten dimensions and membrane theory in eleven dimensions providing a unified framework for describing all the forces of nature including gravity. Since our world is an embedding of four dimensional space-time in these higher dimensions, the encoding of information can be holographic and at high energies new symmetries can arise. This proposal intends to search for deeper understanding of these new developments and to systematically study supergravity theories in higher dimensions.
