6. On the existence of complex-valued harmonic morphisms
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of 4 papers, their content is described below: Paper I. We present a new method for manufacturing complex-valued harmonic morphisms from a wide class of Riemannian Lie groups. This yields new solutions from an important family of homogeneous Hadamard manifolds. LÄS MER
7. Localization, supersymmetric gauge theories and toric geometry
Sammanfattning : Gauge theories is one of the most pervasive and important subject of modern theoretical physics, and there are still many things about them we do not understand. In particular dealing with strongly coupled theories where normal perturbative techniques do not apply is a fundamental open problem. LÄS MER
8. BV-algebras in topology and homotopy algebra
Sammanfattning : This Licentiate thesis consists of two papers. The first paper is called A-infinity-algebras derived from associative algebras with a non-derivation differential. The second paper is joint work with A. Berglund and is called Free loop space homology of highly connected manifolds. LÄS MER
9. Harmonic morphisms, Hermitian structures and symmetric spaces
Sammanfattning : A harmonic morphism is a map between two Riemannian manifolds with the property that its composition with a local harmonic function on the codomain is a local harmonic function on the domain. Such a map is automatically a harmonic map, satisfying an additional partial conformality condition called horizontal (weak) conformality. LÄS MER
10. Twisting and Turning in Six Dimensions
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates certain aspects of a six-dimensional quantum theoryknown as (2,0) theory. This theory is maximally supersymmetric and conformal,making it the most symmetric higher dimensional quantum theory known. It hasresisted an explicit construction as a quantum field theory yet its existence can beinferred from string theory. LÄS MER
