Quantization of the Bianchi type-IX model in supergravity with a   cosmological constant
  Diagonal Bianchi type-IX models are studied in the quantum theory of $ N = 1 $ supergravity with a cosmological constant. It is shown, by imposing the supersymmetry and Lorentz quantum constraints, that there are no physical quantum states in this model. The $ k = + 1 $ Friedmann model in supergravity with cosmological constant does admit quantum states. However, the Bianchi type-IX model provides a better guide to the behaviour of a generic state, since more gravitino modes are available to be excited. These results indicate that there may be no physical quantum states in the full theory of $ N = 1 $ supergravity with a non-zero cosmological constant. are available to be excited. These results indicate that there may be no physical quantum states in the full theory of $ N = 1 $ supergravity with a non-zero cosmological constant.
