  1. 41. Results in Localization for Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

    Författare :Anastasios Gorantis; Joseph A. Minahan; Kimyeong Lee; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetric localization; Matrix models; Supersymmetric field theories; Cohomological field theories; Chiral algebras; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The strong coupling dynamics of Quantum Field Theories with gauge symmetries constitutes a profound problem in Theoretical Physics. Supersymmetric theories offer rare instances where this elusive problem is tractable and can be a valuable source of information and intuition. LÄS MER

  2. 42. The Complex World of Superstrings : On Semichiral Sigma Models and N=(4,4) Supersymmetry

    Författare :Malin Göteman; Ulf Lindström; Daniel Waldram; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Non-linear sigma models; extended supersymmetry; semichiral superfields; neutral hyperkähler geometry; generalized Kähler geometry; T-duality; vector multiplets; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Non-linear sigma models with extended supersymmetry have constrained target space geometries, and can serve as effective tools for investigating and constructing new geometries. Analyzing the geometrical and topological properties of sigma models is necessary to understand the underlying structures of string theory. LÄS MER

  3. 43. Twisting and Gluing : On Topological Field Theories, Sigma Models and Vertex Algebras

    Författare :Johan Källén; Maxim Zabzine; Mathias Blau; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Topological field theory; Chern-Simons theory; Contact geometry; Sigma models; Poisson vertex algebras; Vertex algebras; String theory; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two parts, which can be read separately. In the first part we study aspects of topological field theories. We show how to topologically twist three-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory using a contact structure on the underlying manifold. LÄS MER

  4. 44. Twisting it up the Quantum Way : On Matrix Models, q-deformations and Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

    Författare :Rebecca Lodin; Maxim Zabzine; Taro Kimura; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matrix models; Virasoro constraints; Virasoro algebra; W algebra; q-deformations; Supersymmetric gauge theories; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The mathematical framework which quantum field theory constitutes has been very successful in describing nature. As an extension of such a framework, the idea of supersymmetry was introduced. This greatly simplified the mathematical description of the theories, making them more tractable. LÄS MER

  5. 45. Aspects of vacuum moduli in string theory

    Författare :Matthew Magill; Magdalena Larfors; James Sparks; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; string compactifications; g structures; homological algebra; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we explore geometric aspects of the space of vacua in supersymmetric string compactifications. More specifically, we will look at heterotic strings compactified on Calabi-Yau manifolds and, separately, G2 structure manifolds. LÄS MER
