    • Paradokser i sannsynlighetsregning og statistikk, og bruk av disse i undervisningssammenheng 

      Kaltveit, Ine Sæbø. (Master thesis, 2023)
      I denne oppgaven presenteres ulike paradokser innenfor sannsynlighetsregning og statistikk. Et paradoks er en påstand som er sann, men som virker absurd eller selvmotsigende. Vi kan møte på mange typer paradokser i ...

    • No room to hide: implications of cosmic-ray upscattering for GeV-scale dark matter 

      Alvey, James; Bringmann, Torsten; Kolesova, Helena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The irreducible upscattering of cold dark matter by cosmic rays opens up the intriguing possibility of detecting even light dark matter in conventional direct detection experiments or underground neutrino detectors. The ...
    • Beyond cuts in small signal scenarios: Enhanced sneutrino detectability using machine learning 

      Alvestad, Daniel; Fomin, Nikolai; Kersten, Jörn; Mæland, Steffen; Strumke, Inga (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      We investigate enhancing the sensitivity of new physics searches at the LHC by machine learning in the case of background dominance and a high degree of overlap between the observables for signal and background. We use two ...
    • Tidserier for finansiell data 

      Miller, Benjamin Vaag (Bachelor thesis, 2023)
      The motivation for this thesis is to grasp general theory and principles for modeling time series, for the application to financial data. By going through the theory that makes up this field and bringing that perception ...
    • Differential equations and some of their applications in chemistry 

      Kvavik, Malin (Bachelor thesis, 2023)
    • Towards learning optimized kernels for complex Langevin 

      Alvestad, Daniel; Larsen, Rasmus Normann; Rothkopf, Alexander Karl (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      We present a novel strategy aimed at restoring correct convergence in complex Langevin simulations. The central idea is to incorporate system-specific prior knowledge into the simulations, in order to circumvent the NP-hard ...
    • Firewall black holes and echoes from an action principle 

      Abedi, Jahed (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      It is often said that there is no gravity theory based on local action principles giving rise to firewall black hole solutions. Additionally, Guo and Mathur [Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 31, 2242009 (2022).] have cast doubt on the ...
    • Connecting analysis, algebra, and topology; Generalizing Maxwell's equations 

      Hodne, Jenny Therese (Bachelor thesis, 2023)
      This thesis explores the mathematical concepts of differential forms and their applications in higher dimensional geometries, known as manifolds. We will see how the topological invariants of a geometry are related to ...
    • Families of Proper Holomorphic Embeddings and Carleman-Type Theorem with parameters 

      Domenico Di Salvo, Giovanni; Ritter, Tyson; Wold, Erlend Fornæss (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      We solve the problem of simultaneously embedding properly holomorphically into C2 a whole family of n-connected domains Omega_r in P1 such that none of the components of P1 \ Omega_r reduces to a point, by constructing a ...
    • Topological G2 and Spin(7) strings at 1-loop from double complexes 

      Ashmore, Anthony; Coimbra, André; Strickland-Constable, Charles; Svanes, Eirik Eik; Tennyson, David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      We study the topological G2 and Spin(7) strings at 1-loop. We define new double complexes for supersymmetric NSNS backgrounds of string theory using generalised geometry. The 1-loop partition function then has a target-space ...

      Acharya, Bobby; Lambert, Neil; Najjar, Marwan; Svanes, Eirik Eik; Tian, Jiahua (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      We study the gauging of a discrete ℤ3 symmetry in the five-dimensional superconformal TN theories. We argue that this leads to an infinite sequence of five-dimensional superconformal theories with either E6 × SU(N) or SU(3) ...
