Higher Spin Symmetry in Quantum Gravity, Condensed Matter and Mathematics
A serious open issue is that there is no widely accepted solution to the Quantum Gravity Problem. This results in paradoxes and clouds the study of many problems from the cosmology of the early Universe to unified theories of fundamental interactions that should incorporate both the Standard Model of Elementary Particles and Gravity. This proposal aims at attacking the old problems from a new vantage point and to achieve long-awaited breakthroughs. The potential reward is enormous as the project aims to shed light on the wide range of problems by exploring a new avenue provided by the first working example of a Higher Spin Gravity (HiSGRA). It will (A) attack the Quantum Gravity Problem and…
