An ambitwistor string field theory approach to supergravity (2018)
Thesis
Riccombeni, D. A. An ambitwistor string field theory approach to supergravity. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4398544

In this thesis a covariant closed superstring field theory, equivalent to classical ten-dimensional Type II supergravity, is presented. The defining conformal field theory is the ambitwistor string worldsheet theory of Mason and Skinner [1]. This t... Read More about An ambitwistor string field theory approach to supergravity.

Geometric patterns and microstructures in the study of material defects and composites (2018)
Thesis
Fanzon, S. Geometric patterns and microstructures in the study of material defects and composites. (Thesis). https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4271050

The main focus of this PhD thesis is the study of microstructures and geometric patterns in materials, in the framework of the Calculus of Variations. My PhD research, carried out in collaboration with my supervisor Mariapia Palombaro and Marcello Po...
