Professor Kallosh works on the general structure of supergravity and string theory applications to cosmology. Her main interests are related to models of the early universe, inflation, dark energy, and string theory. She develops string theory models that explain the origin of the universe and the current acceleration of its expansion. Collaborating with others, she constructed de Sitter supergravity models suitable for the studies of inflation and dark energy, specifically focusing on spontaneously broken supersymmetry. Analyzing the potential consequences of data from current and future cosmological observations, such as those from the LiteBIRD satellite and the cosmic microwave background (CMB), her results impact the relationship between superstring theory and supergravity in real-world contexts. In particular, she aims to assess future tests of string theory against CMB data and investigate effective supergravity models flexible enough to accommodate amplitude variations in gravitational waves produced during inflation.
