Abstract
In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, weaim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA missionin the area of fundamental physics. Given the very broad range of topics thatmight be relevant to LISA, we present here a sample of what we view asparticularly promising directions, based in part on the current researchinterests of the LISA scientific community in the area of fundamental physics.We organize these directions through a "science-first" approach that allows usto classify how LISA data can inform theoretical physics in a variety of areas.For each of these theoretical physics classes, we identify the sources that arecurrently expected to provide the principal contribution to our knowledge, andthe areas that need further development. The classification presented hereshould not be thought of as cast in stone, but rather as a fluid framework thatis amenable to change with the flow of new insights in theoretical physics.
