1. On the breakdown of regularity of invariant curves in quasi-periodically forced systems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we study the process of torus collisions in one-parameter families of quasi-periodically forced dynamical systems. Specifically, we study the process whereby two invariant curves (homeomorphic to circles), one attracting and one repelling, bifurcate into a strange non-chaotic attractor. LÄS MER
2. Stacky Modifications and Operations in the Étale Cohomology of Number Fields
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of 4 papers. In Paper A we define stacky building data for stacky covers in the spirit of Pardini and give an equivalence of (2,1)- categories between the category of stacky covers and the category of stacky building data. LÄS MER
3. Strings, Branes and Symmetries
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.
