      Shatashvili, Samson (2021)
      The asymptotics of characters of irreducible representations of a compact Lie group G for large values of the scaling factor k are given by Duistermaat-Heckman (DH) integrals over coadjoint orbits of G. This phenomenon ...

      Matthews, John Alphonsus (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2006)
      The first chapter will deal with the one to one correspondence between the positive hermitian Jordan triple systems and the bounded symmetric domains. We start by defining the various Jordan systems. Then we continue by ...

      Gonzo, Riccardo (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2022)
      In this thesis, we study classical radiative observables perturbatively in terms of on-shell scattering amplitudes. In particular, we focus primarily on the two-body problem in gauge and gravitational theories by using an ...
    • A performance study of a template C++ class for parallel Monte Carlo simulations of local statistical field theories on a three dimensional lattice 

      Burke, Liam (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2020)
      In this thesis we investigate the performance properties of a template C++ class designed to run parallel Monte Carlo simulations of local statistical field theories on a three dimensional lattice. The generic nature of ...
    • TT deformations of non-relativistic models 

      Frolov, Sergey; Esper, Chantelle (2021)
      The light-cone gauge approach to TT¯¯¯¯ deformed models is used to derive the TT¯¯¯¯ deformed matrix nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the Landau-Lifshitz equation, and the Gardner equation. Properties of one-soliton solutions ...
    • Non-planar anomalous dimensions in super Yang-Mills theories 

      Spiering, Anne (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2022)
      Conformal supersymmetric Yang--Mills theories play an important role in the gauge-gravity correspondence and, despite being highly non-physical, have been a driving force for many new approaches in more realistic theories ...
    • Conformal bootstrap and thermalization in holographic CFTs 

      Tadic, Petar (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2021)
      This thesis covers a number of topics in conformal field theories that are supposed to have gravity duals according to the AdS/CFT correspondence. We use the conformal bootstrap in the Regge and lightcone limits as the ...
    • Integrable systems, separation of variables and the Yang-Baxter equation 

      Ryan, Paul (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2021)
      This thesis is based on the author’s publications during the course of his PhD studies and focuses on various aspects of the field of quantum integrable systems. The aim of this thesis is to develop the so-called separation ...
    • Homotopical and effective methods for associative algebras 

      Tamaroff, Pedro Nicolas (Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2021)
      This thesis contains four main chapters based on four different papers. In the third chapter, we solve the problem of computing the minimal model of an arbitrary associative monomial algebra. Our methods are combinatorial ...

    • From positive geometries to a coaction on hypergeometric functions 

      Britto, Ruth (2020)
      It is well known that Feynman integrals in dimensional regularization often evaluate to functions of hypergeometric type. Inspired by a recent proposal for a coaction on one-loop Feynman integrals in dimensional regularization, ...
