► Unification of Fundamental Interactions, Quantum Gravity, String Theory

F.R.S.-FNRS et Fonds associés (hors FRIA) - FRIA - Initiatives ministérielles et autres Communauté française - Autres U.E..

In spite of many attempts, there exists no mathematically consistent quantum theory of the gravitational field. String theory offers the best hope for  ...

► Algebric Structure of Gauge theories, BRST symetry

F.R.S.-FNRS et Fonds associés (hors FRIA) - Initiatives ministérielles et autres Communauté française - Autres U.E..

Gauge symmetries play a crucial rôle in the formulation of models describing the fundamental interactions. It is planned to pursue the theoretical ana ...

► Black holes

F.R.S.-FNRS et Fonds associés (hors FRIA) - Fonds associés (toutes subventions, y compris la Loterie Nat.) - Initiatives ministérielles et autres Communauté française - Autres U.E..

Black holes raise a number of issues whose resolution will probably shed important light on quantum gravity . These issues arise already in the simpler ...

► Supersymmetry and non-perturbative aspects of gauge theories

F.R.S.-FNRS et Fonds associés (hors FRIA) - PAI - Autres U.E..

Supersymmetry appears to be a crucial element in theories which unify the fundamental interactions. Moreover, when applied to gauge theories, supersymm ...
