1. Tensor Products of Highest Weight Representations and Skew-Symmetric Matrix Equations A+B+C=0
Abstract : The question of characterizing the eigenvalues for the sum of two Hermitian matrices, was solved in 1999, after almost a century of efforts. The saturation conjecture for GL_C(n) was proven by Knutson and Tao, filling in the last gap in Horn’s conjecture. READ MORE

3. Tautological rings of Shimura varieties
Abstract : This licentiate thesis consists of two papers. In paper I the tautological ring of a Hilbert modular variety at an unramified prime is computed. The method of van der Geer in the case of A_{g} is extended to deal with the case of the Hilbert modular variety, which is more complicated. READ MORE

4. Fishing for Females : Sensory Exploitation in the Swordtail Characin
Abstract : Mate choice plays an important role in sexual selection and speciation. The evolution of mate choice is intriguing in cases where choosy individuals gain little except for genetic material from the mate and where the trait used as a criterion for the choice is costly to its bearer.

5. Connectivity and embeddability of buildings and manifolds
Abstract : The results presented in is thesis concern combinatorial and topological properties of objects closely related to geometry, but regarded in combinatorial terms. Papers A and C have in common that they are intended to study properties of buildings, whereas Papers A and B both are concerned with the connectivity of graphs of simplicial complexes. READ MORE
