Conceptual Problems In Unification Theories
The project analyzed conceptual problems that arise during attempts to create unification theories in physics. Advanced tools of mathematical physics were used in the research, and the issues were also considered from a broader philosophical perspective. The project was supported by the John Templeton Foundation.

The project analyzed conceptual problems that arise during attempts to create unification theories in physics. Advanced tools of mathematical physics were used in the research, and the issues were also considered from a broader philosophical perspective. Topics analyzed included: the problem of dark energy, conceptual issues in the context of quantum gravity, alternative approaches in modeling phenomena in cosmology and particle physics, and the connections between syntax and semantics in the context of physical theories.
