1. 1. On applications of manifest, maximal supersymmetry & U-duality

   Författare :Anna Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; maximal supergravity; pure spinors; Maximal supersymmetry; loop amplitudes; U-duality; Born-Infeld theory; generalised geometry; high energy particle physics;

   Sammanfattning : Maximal supersymmetry is made manifest through the introduction of the pure spinor formalism. In many ways, this formalism represents a powerful tool in examinations of characteristics of different theories in high energy physics, though it is far from extensively exploited. LÄS MER

3. 2. Strings, Branes and Symmetries

   Författare :Anders Westerberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lie-algebra cohomology; Reggeon vertices; extended objects; string theory; p -branes; current algebra; supersymmetry; sewing; pseudodifferential operators; D-branes;

   Sammanfattning : Recent dramatic progress in the understanding of the non-perturbative structure of superstring theory shows that extended objects of various kinds, collectively referred to as p-branes, are an integral part of the theory. In this thesis, comprising an introductory text divided in two parts and seven appended research papers (Papers I-VII), we study various aspects of p-branes with relevance for superstring theory.
