We study the quantization of some cosmological models within the theory of N=1 supergravity with a positive cosmological constant. We find, by imposing the supersymmetry and Lorentz constraints, that there are no physical states in the…
We show that a quantum field theoretic model of anyons cannot be ``free'' in the (restrictive) sense that the basic fields create only one-particle states out of the vacuum.
We first present a review, intended for classical relativists, of the ultraviolet difficulties faced by local quantum gravity theories in both the usual Einstein versions and in their supergravity extensions, at least perturbatively. These…
We consider the system of 3 nonrelativistic spinless fermions in two dimensions, which interact through spherically-symmetric pair interactions. Recently a claim has been made for the existence of the so-called super Efimov effect [Y.…
We perform a global analysis of the space of consistent 6D quantum gravity theories with N = 1 supersymmetry, including models with multiple tensor multiplets. We prove that for theories with fewer than T = 9 tensor multiplets, a finite…
From the perspective of quantum information theory, a system so simple as one restricted to just two nonorthogonal states can be surprisingly rich in physics. In this paper, we explore the extent of this statement through a review of three…
In this paper we study an N=1 supersymmetric extension of a perturbatively super-renormalizable (nonlocal)theory of gravity in four dimensions. The nonlocal supergravity theory is power-counting super-renormalizable and tree level unitary…

We show, in two complementary ways, that D=11 supergravity---in contrast to all its lower dimensional versions---forbids a cosmological extension. First, we linearize the putative model about an Anti de Sitter background and show that it…
It is possible to characterize certain states of matter by properties of their edge states. This implies a notion of `surface-only models': models which can only be regularized at the edge of a higher-dimensional system. After incorporating…
The theory of N = 1 supergravity with gauged supermatter is studied in the context of a k = + 1 Friedmann minisuperspace model. It is found by imposing the Lorentz and supersymmetry constraints that there are {\seveni no} physical states in…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate a specific FRW model derived from the theory of N=1 supergravity with gauged supermatter. The supermatter content is restricted to a vector supermultiplet. This objective is particularly…

Do $N$-partite $k$-uniform states always exist when $k\leq \lfloor\frac{N}{2}\rfloor-1$? In this work, we provide new upper bounds on the parameter $k$ for the existence of $k$-uniform states in $(\mathbb{C}^{d})^{\otimes N}$ when…
We consider the conditions necessary for obtaining perturbative maximal supergravity in d dimensions as a decoupling limit of type II superstring theory compactified on a (10 -- d)-torus. For dimensions d = 2 and d = 3 it is possible to…
