Abstract
Among the possible vacua, quantum gravity within the stationary phase approximation selects the vacuum with vanishing cosmological constant. Classical background gravity coupled to matter renders the highest Higgs potential minimum stable, allowing for spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. The influence of the non-renormalizability of supergravity on the symmetry breaking pattern is studied.
