A broad program of research in theoretical physics will include work on nonperturbative superstring theory and M- theory, studies of supersymmetric theories of elementary particles, and investigation of inflationary cosmology. Supersymmetric theories, and in particular superstring theory and M-theory, are the leading candidates for a theory of all the fundamental forces, including gravity, and inflationary theory is the best generalization of the standard Big Bang theory describing the structure and the evolution of our Universe. The questions addressed by these investigations are among the most fundamental issues for the future development of physics.

一项广泛的理论物理研究计划将包括关于非扰动超边缘理论和M-理论的研究，对基本颗粒的超对称理论的研究以及通货膨胀宇宙学的研究。 超对称理论，尤其是超声理论和M理论，是所有基本力量（包括重力）和通货膨胀理论的主要候选者的主要候选者，是描述我们宇宙结构和演变的标准大爆炸理论的最佳概括。 这些调查提出的问题是物理学未来发展的最根本问题之一。
