Outline of Research at the Start |
量子重力理論においてグローバル対称性がどのように破れるか、またはゲージ化されるかを定量的に理解し、また、距離予想やドジッター予想などのスワンプランド条件により確固たる理論的基礎付けをすることで、超弦理論の実験的検証につながる理論的予言を与えることを目指す。

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We clarified several general properties of low-energy effective theories of quantum gravity. In particular, for any consistent quantum gravity in anti-de Sitter space, with gauge symmetry, we showed how quantum states are decomposed by into irreducible representation of the symmetry when the radius of the event horizon is larger than the curvature radius of the spacetime. For example, when the gauge symmetry is a finite group and if a quantum state is chosen at random, the probability that it belongs to the irreducible representation R is proportional to the square of the dimension of R. We also extended this result to the case of compact Lie groups and clarified the thermodynamic properties of black holes with non-Abelian hairs.
