项目摘要

String theory is presently at an important stage of its development. The rapid improvement in our understanding of the theory made string theory a useful toolkit in our investigations of the structures underlying the workings of nature. Those fundamental applications of string theory techniques to particle physics, gravitation and cosmology are the main mandate of string theorists, and our best opportunity to make connection with experimental data. However, increasingly and perhaps surprisingly, methods originating from string theory, especially as a theory of quantum gravity and quantum black holes, have found applications in many diverse areas of physics and mathematics. Such applications have the added effect of contributing to a deeper understanding of string theory itself, as it confronts a variety of physical situations. The research proposed has therefore the dual purpose of developing further the structure of string theory, while also applying it to a variety interesting contexts. In this proposal I detail some questions in string theory and its applications, and avenues I propose to approach them, including some concrete examples of projects to be completed in the next year or two. The proposal also includes detailed plan of providing training for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, which is an integral part of the proposed research.

弦理论目前正处于发展的重要阶段。我们对弦理论理解的迅速提高，使弦理论成为我们研究自然界运作背后结构的有用工具。弦论技术在粒子物理学、引力和宇宙学中的基本应用是弦论学家的主要任务，也是我们与实验数据联系的最佳机会。然而，越来越多甚至可能令人惊讶的是，源于弦理论的方法，特别是作为量子引力和量子黑洞的理论，在物理和数学的许多不同领域都得到了应用。这样的应用还有一个额外的效果，那就是有助于更深入地理解弦理论本身，因为它面对的是各种各样的物理情况。因此，我们提出的研究有两个目的，一是进一步发展弦理论的结构，二是把它应用到各种有趣的背景中。在这份计划书中，我详细介绍了弦理论及其应用中的一些问题，以及我提出的解决这些问题的途径，包括一些将在未来一两年内完成的项目的具体例子。该建议还包括为研究生和博士后研究员提供培训的详细计划，这是拟议研究的组成部分。
