  1. 1. Boundary states in conformal field theory

    Author : Albrecht Wurtz; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis discusses boundary states in conformal field theories related to WZW (Wess-Zumino-Witten) models. These models are used as building blocks to describe the compact extra dimensions of certain string theories. The focus of the first chapter is to give a flavor of conformal field theory. READ MORE

  2. 2. Conformal Field Theory and D-branes

    Author : Albrecht Wurtz; Jürgen Fuchs; Bert Schellekens; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; Conformal field theory; Vertex algebras; D-branes; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The main topic of this doctoral thesis is D-branes in string theory, expressed in the language of conformal field theory. The purpose of string theory is to describe the elementary particles and the fundamental interactions of nature, including gravitation as a quantum theory. READ MORE
