  1. 1. Supersymmetric Localization : A Journey from Seven to Three Dimensions

    Author : Konstantina Polydorou; Guido Festuccia; Elli Pomoni; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetry; Localization; Equivariant Cohomology; BPS Operators; Topological Field Theory; Equivariant Twisting; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Quantum Field Theory has been a dominating framework in elementary particle physics during the last century. Within this framework, supersymmetric theories have attracted a lot of attention due to their mathematical structure, simplicity and insight into the problems of unification, dark matter and hierarchy.

  2. 2. Results in Localization for Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

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

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  3. 3. Localization, supersymmetric gauge theories and toric geometry

    Author : Jacob Winding; Maxim Zabzine; Sara Pasquetti; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetry; gauge theory; localization; toric geometry; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : 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. READ MORE

  4. 4. Exact Results in Supersymmetric Field Theories : A dissertation on the defect and deformed

    Author : Erik Widen; Konstantin Zarembo; Nikolay Gromov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AdS CFT correspondence; integrability; localization; supersymmetric deformations; Quantum Spectral Curve; defect CFT; one-point functions; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Quantum field theories (QFTs) are the most precise descriptions of the physical reality that humanity has found. Yet exact predictions are often missing as most computations are notoriously difficult to carry out. One generally resorts to perturbation theory which immediately limits the regime of validity.

  5. 5. Exact Results in Five-Dimensional Gauge Theories : On Supersymmetry, Localization and Matrix Models

    Author : Anton Nedelin; Joseph Minahan; Ivan Kostov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetric localization; Matrix Models; Chern-Simons theory; Supersymmetric Field Theories; 2; 0 theories; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Gauge theories are one of the corner stones of modern theoretical physics. They describe the nature of all fundamental interactions and have been applied in multiple branches of physics. The most challenging problem of gauge theories, which has not been solved yet, is their strong coupling dynamics. READ MORE
