1. Vacua in String Theory : de Sitter Space and Stability in Flux Compactifications
Sammanfattning : Our understanding of cosmology has evolved radically in the last decades. Current models demand the presence of dark energy in our universe and the most favored candidate behind this component is a small positive cosmological constant that characterizes a de Sitter (dS) spacetime.

2. Studies on boundary values of eigenfunctions on spaces of constant negative curvature
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two papers on the spectral geometry of locally symmetric spaces of Riemannian and Lorentzian signature. Both works are concerned with the idea of relating analysis on such spaces to structures on their boundaries.The first paper is motivated by a conjecture of Patterson on the Selberg zeta function of Kleinian groups.

3. Shapes of Spacetimes : Collected tales of black holes
Sammanfattning : In theory, the existence of black holes is predicted by general relativity. In reality, there is a general consensus that they exist in space; in particular at the center of many galaxies. The theory of black holes has been around for decades, but there are still interesting questions calling for attention. LÄS MER
