  1. 6. Linking Chains Together : String Bits and the Bethe Ansatz

    Författare :Martin Lübcke; Konstantin Zarembo; Antti Niemi; Matthias Staudacher; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical physics; theoretical physics; string theory; string bit; Bethe ansatz; Teoretisk fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is divided into two parts. In the first part we focus mainly on certain aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The AdS/CFT correspondence is a proposed duality between Type IIB superstring theory on AdS5 x S5 and N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Aspects of the Duality between Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory and String Theory

    Författare :Daniel Bundzik; Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; classical mechanics; quantum mechanics; relativity; gravitation; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Natural science; Naturvetenskap; Physics; Fysik; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; Star product; Leigh-Strassler deformation; R-matrix; Integrability; Spin-chains; Fractional D-branes; type IIB string theory; AdS CFT-correspondence; gauge gravity correspondence; kvantmekanik; klassisk mekanik; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; relativitet;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with three topics related to the Ads/CFT correspondence. In Paper I, solutions describing the geometry of fractional D1-branes of Type IIB string theory are presented. The running coupling constant is computed on the gauge theory side. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Pierced, Wrapped and Torn : Aspects of String Theory Compactifications

    Författare :Magdalena Larfors; Ulf Danielsson; Gary Shiu; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : An outstanding problem in physics is to find a unified framework for quantum mechanics and general relativity. This is required for a better understanding of black holes and the early cosmology of the universe. String theory provides such a unification. In this thesis, we study aspects of compactifications of type IIB string theory. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Spins and Giants : Fundamental Excitations in Weakly and  Strongly Coupled ABJM Theory

    Författare :Olof Ohlsson Sax; Joseph A. Minahan; Gianluca Grignani; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; AdS CFT correspondence; Integrable field theory; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The discovery of integrability on both sides of the duality between planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory and free type IIB string theory in AdS5 × S5 has lead to great progress in our understanding of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Similar integrable structures also appear in the more recent three-dimensional superconformal N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena (ABJM), as well as in its gravity dual, type IIA string theory on AdS4 × CP3.

  5. 10. Automorphic forms and string theory: Small automorphic representations and non-perturbative effects

    Författare :Henrik Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; instantons; automorphic forms; automorphic representations; Eisenstein series; U-duality; non-perturbative effects; string theory;

    Sammanfattning : This compilation thesis stems from a project with the purpose of determining non-perturbative contributions to scattering amplitudes in string theory carrying important information about instantons, black hole quantum states and M-theory. The scattering amplitudes are functions on the moduli space invariant under the discrete U-duality group and this invariance is one of the defining properties of an automorphic form. LÄS MER
