  1. 1. Supersymmetric Geometries in Type IIA Supergravity

    Författare :Christian von Schultz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Flux compactifications; Supergravity; Supersymmetry; Superstring vacua;

    Sammanfattning : Supergravity theory is any supersymmetric theory with a local supersymmetry parameter. This thesis undertakes the study of type IIA supergravity, a supergravity theory in ten dimensions associated with type IIA string theory. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Supersymmetric Geometries in Type IIA Supergravity

    Författare :Christian von Schultz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetry; Spinorial Geometry; Classification; IIA Supergravity;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about supersymmetric geometries in type IIA supergravity and their classification using spinorial geometry. Appended is our first paper on the topic. There are four types of Killing spinors to treat, distinguished by their isotropy group. The appended paper treats the cases where the isotropy group is Spin(7) or Spin(7) ⋉ ℝ⁸. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Arithmetic and Hyperbolic Structures in String Theory

    Författare :Daniel Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instantons; Kac-Moody algebras; Spacelike singularities; String Theory;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introductory text followed by two separate parts which may be read independently of each other. In Part I we analyze certain hyperbolic structures arising when studying gravity in the vicinity of spacelike singularities (the BKL-limit). LÄS MER

  4. 4. Aspects of Wrapped Branes in String and M-Theory

    Författare :Ling Bao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Instantons; Algebraic symmetries; String theory;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introductory text together with five appended research papers. The Ariadne's thread through the whole thesis is various effects coming from high-dimensional p-branes in various subsectors of string and M-theory. LÄS MER
