De Sitter Projective Relativity

Ignazio Licata, born 1958, is an Italian theoretical physicist, professor  and scientific director of the Institute for Scientific Methodology, Italy. He worked on quantum field theory, interpretation of quantum mechanics, and  recently quantum cosmology. His further topics of research include the foundation of quantum mechanics, space-time at Planck scale, the group  approach in quantum cosmology, systems theory, non-linear dynamics, as well  as computation in physical, biological and cognitive systems (logical  openness, sub and super Turing systems). Licata has developed a new approach to quantum cosmology ("Archaic Universe") based on de Sitter  invariant special relativity. Leonardo Chiatti, born in 1960, graduated in physics at Rome University “La Sapienza” in 1985, discussing a thesis on spin in stochastic mechanics under the guide of Marcello Cini. His interest focus on the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics and their relation to areas as quantum dissipative phenomena, quantum cosmology and the spectrum of elementary particles. During ‘90s, he was involved in MQC Project aiming to produce superpositions of quantum states in mesoscopic systems (rf-SQUIDs). Successively, his interest enlarged to medical physics and currently he serves as physicist in chief at AUSL Medical Physics Laboratory in Viterbo, Italy. Along the past decade he has been, in collaboration with Ignazio Licata, a proponent of de Sitter quantum cosmology. Elmo Benedetto was born in Salerno January 2, 1972. He graduated and later he received his Phd from Salerno University. At present he is a member of the physics research group at Benevento University. Main research interests areas are Cosmology and relativistic physics.
