  1. 1. Fluxes from the reduction of a gauge theory on a squashed three-sphere

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Jim Lundin; [2021]
    Keywords : Supersymmetric Localization; Dimensional Reduction; Hopf fibration; Fluxes;

    Abstract : We present the supersymmetry and localization of an N=2 theory on S3b along with that of an N=(2,2) theory on S2. Performing the dimensional reduction of the theory on S3b produces a theory on S2 with no flux-sectors. READ MORE

  2. 2. Supersymmetry on Curved Space and Localization: An Example on S3

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Jim Lundin; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : We present a basic introduction to the Super Poincaré algebra in 4D, then constructthe N = 1 Super Yang-Mills in 4D. By analogue we expand to the case of N = 1 Super Yang-Mills in 10D. Then by a method of dimensional reduction we getcertain supersymmetric theories in d <= 7 and restrict to spherical backgrounds. READ MORE

  3. 3. Electromagnetic Duality in SO(3) Yang-Mills Theory : Bachelor Thesis

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Jim Lundin; [2018]
    Keywords : Montonen-Olive conjecture; BPS states; t Hooft-Polyakov monopole; Witten effect; SL 2; Z invariance;

    Abstract : We introduce the historical context and motivation for the search for magnetic monopoles or monopole-like objects. Beginning the theoretical part we investigate the properties of groups as they relate to symmetries in physical theories. READ MORE
