New Lectures on Supergravity

TL;DR

This paper introduces a new non-quantized supergravity framework called meta-field theory, explores its implications for understanding gravity and cosmology, and proposes the SCYL program to connect supersymmetry with astrophysical phenomena.

Contribution

It presents a novel meta-field approach to supergravity that treats gravitons and gravitinos as deterministic entities, and introduces the SCYL program for applying supergravity to cosmology.

Findings

Meta-field theory offers a consistent classical representation of supergravity.

The SCYL program aims to unify supersymmetry and cosmological observations.

Gravity may not be inherently quantizable, but can be understood through formal analogies.

Abstract

This essay aims to summarize the main physical features arising from a new supersymmetric theory of gravitation. Based on preliminary discussions about classical field theory, cosmology, algebra and group theory, and taking formal results and theoretical considerations in comparison with several contributions from great authors, present work deals with gravity inside the limits of a meta-field theory, that is, a non-quantized but consistent representation of supergravity, the supersymmetry between gravitons and gravitinos. The introduction of meta-fields furnishes an independent framework for the study of gravity despite of constraints of quantization, treating the supersymmetric partners as deterministic actors of gravitation and not simply probabilistic entities. I explain my belief that gravitational field, by its own nature, is not quantizable in the same foot as the other fields, what does not means that we can not understand gravity by similar formal veins. Also, present work proposes the implementation of the so-called SCYL program (Supersymmetric Cosmology at Yonder Locals), an attempt to apply supergravity as a meta-field theory to solve problems on astrophysical cosmology. The SCYL program is an effort directed to search convergence between the knowledge brought by cosmology and by supersymmetry to attain more clearness about the structure and evolution of the Universe. As an additional motivation, there are some exercises in the final part of the work to aid fixing of the main concepts.
