1. The Bergman Kernel on Toric Kähler Manifolds
Sammanfattning : Let $(L,h)\to (X, \omega)$ be a compact toric polarized Kähler manifold of complex dimension $n$. For each $k\in N$, the fibre-wise Hermitian metric $h^k$ on $L^k$ induces a natural inner product on the vector space $C^{\infty}(X, L^k)$ of smooth global sections of $L^k$ by integration with respect to the volume form $\frac{\omega^n}{n!}$.

2. Real and complex Monge-Ampère equations, statistical mechanics and canonical metrics
Sammanfattning : Recent decades has seen a strong trend in complex geometry to study canonical metrics and the way they relate to geometric analysis, algebraic geometry and probability theory. This thesis consists of four papers each contributing to this field. The first paper sets up a probabilistic framework for real Monge-Ampère equations on tori. LÄS MER
3. Multipoint Okounkov bodies
Sammanfattning : During the nineties, the field medallist Okounkov found a way to associate to an ample line bundle L over an n−complex dimensional projective manifold X a convex body in Rn, now called Okounkov body ∆(L). The construction depends on the choice of a valuation centered at one point p∈X and it works even if L is a big line bundle. LÄS MER
4. Localization, supersymmetric gauge theories and toric geometry
Sammanfattning : Gauge theories is one of the most pervasive and important subject of modern theoretical physics, and there are still many things about them we do not understand. In particular dealing with strongly coupled theories where normal perturbative techniques do not apply is a fundamental open problem. LÄS MER
5. 7D supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on toric and hypertoric manifolds
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introduction and three research papers in the general area of geometry and physics. In particular we study 7D supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and related topics in toric and hypertoric geometry. Yang-Mills theory is used to describe particle interactions in physics but it also plays an important role in mathematics. LÄS MER
