1. Symmetries and conservation laws
Abstract : Conservation laws play an important role in science. The aim of this thesis is to provide an overview and develop new methods for constructing conservation laws using Lie group theory. The derivation of conservation laws for invariant variational problems is based on Noether’s theorem. READ MORE

3. Strings, Branes and Symmetries
Abstract : Recent dramatic progress in the understanding of the non-perturbative structure of superstring theory shows that extended objects of various kinds, collectively referred to as p-branes, are an integral part of the theory. In this thesis, comprising an introductory text divided in two parts and seven appended research papers (Papers I-VII), we study various aspects of p-branes with relevance for superstring theory.

4. Quivers, superconformal field theories and higher symmetries
Abstract : Quantum field theory (QFT) currently provides our best description of the natural world. Over the past century, it has been able to accurately reproduce many experimental results to an astonishing degree of accuracy and predict the existence of new particles. Despite this, QFT suffers from several mathematical problems. READ MORE

5. Periodic Structures with Higher Symmetries: Analysis and Applications
Abstract : In this thesis, periodic structures with higher symmetries are studied. Their wave propagation characteristics are investigated and their potential applications are discussed. Higher-symmetric periodic structures are described with an additional geometrical operation beyond a translation operator. READ MORE
