  1. 1. Phenomenological exploration of flavored Grand Unification through high-scale matching and renormalization group flow

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Hector Tiblom; [2023]
    Keywords : Grand Unification; GUT; trinification; spontaneous symmetry breaking; effective field theory; EFT; high-scale matching; renormalization group flow; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The phenomenological success of the Standard Model (SM), and its unification of the electromagnetic and weak forces has inspired the search for a Grand Unified Theory (GUT), that dynamically reduces to the SM at low energies. In this work, we consider one such GUT, based on the trinification model [SU(3)]³ with an additional local SU(2) family symmetry, that is then broken directly to the gauge symmetry group of the SM.

  3. 2. The Swampland and Early Universe Cosmology

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Alexia Nix; [2022]
    Keywords : Swampland; Early Universe; String Theory; Cosmology; Effective Field Theory; Dark Energy.;

    Abstract : Until now the quantum field theory (QFT) that successfully describes the electric, weak and strong interactions (three out of the four fundamental forces) between particles is the Standard Model, but it omits gravity. The prime candidate for a quantum theory of gravity is string theory. READ MORE

  4. 3. Does ETF Ownership Increase Stock Volatility?

    University essay from

    Author : Daniel Bysted; John Lundkvist; [2019-07-05]
    Keywords : Exchange Traded Fund; Stock Volatility; EFT ownership; Arbitrage;

    Abstract : Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are supposed to be priced equal to the net asset value of their underlying stocks, if not, opportunities of arbitrage occur and are quickly corrected by arbitrageurs. When a demand or liquidity shock hits the ETF market, the price of the underlying stocks are affected due to arbitrage trading. READ MORE

  5. 4. How do firms evaluate investments in HRD? -a study of two large Swedish accounting firms

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Alexander Andersson; Edward Lindqvist; [2011-07-01]
    Keywords : HRD; Human Resource Development; Investments in HRD;

    Abstract : Research The study aim to answer the following research questions; questions: -How do firms evaluate investments in HRD? -Is there a need for additional evaluation methods? Purpose: The purpose of the study is to understand how these companies evaluate investments in HRD. Method: The method used is a case study of two large Swedish accounting firms where theoretical and scientific ideas and methodologies are compared with empirical data from interviews with appropriate interviewees from selected companies Theoretical The study’s theoretical framework is based on Kirkpatrick’s four-level model of evaluation framework: and Russ-Eft and Preskill’s systems model of evaluation.
