1. An Introduction to Hitchin Systems
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH; Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/MatematikcentrumAbstract : This thesis aims to introduce the tools that are needed to understand — and historically led to the inception of — Hitchin systems. We lay out a basic theory of Hamiltonian systems on symplectic manifolds, and prove the Liouville-Arnold theorem, which states that integrable Hamiltonian systems admit coordinates in which their solution is basically linear.

2. Review of compact spaces for type IIA/IIB theories and generalised fluxes
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomiAbstract : In the present project we study compactifications of type IIA/IIB string theories on toroidal orbifolds. We present the moduli space for N=1 four-dimensional reductions and its topological properties. To fix the value of all moduli, we will construct the most general holomorphic superpotential W using a set of T-dual iterations for the fluxes. READ MORE

3. Localization Techniques, Yang-Mills Theory and Strings
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysikAbstract : Equivariant localization techniques exploit symmetries of systems, represented by group actions on manifolds, and use them to evaluate certain partition functions exactly. In this master thesis we begin with the study of localization in finite dimensions. READ MORE

4. Determination of homogenized viscoelastic properties of porous frame structures based on the microstructure geometry and solid constituent viscoelastic properties
University essay from KTH/Farkost och flygAbstract : Polymer based porous materials largely exhibit viscoelastic properties which is a consequence of the viscoelastic nature of the constituent solid. If the constitutive relation for the constituent solid is known, then it is of interest to investigate how this constitutive relation of the solid at the microscale influences the macroscopic properties of the porous structure.
