  • Applications of light-cone superspace in quantum field theory 
    PARIKH, SARTHAK (2012-05)
    In this thesis we focus on supersymmetric quantum field theories. In particular we study the maximally supersymmetric N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in light-cone superspace. We present two applications of light-cone superspace ...
  • Arbitrary spin theories in light-cone gauge 
    Y S, AKSHAY (2015-04)
    We outline an approach which is purely based on symmetry considerations, for the construction of interaction vertices involving arbitrary spin fields. We review existing literature in which this approach is used to construct ...
  • Aspects of gravitation in the light-cone gauge 
    MALI, MAHENDRAPRASAD (Dept. of Physics, 2016-12)
    In this thesis, we investigate gravitation in light-cone gauge. There are various motivations to study pure gravity, in four dimensions, as a field theory in light-cone gauge. These include recent results pertaining to ...
  • Aspects of field theories in the light-cone formalism 
    SHAH, NABHA (2018-05)
    An ultraviolet finite theory of quantum gravity has been elusive. Gravity coupled to higher spin fields, described by the Vasiliev model, is one candidate for a finite theory of gravity but it has no known action principle. ...
  • Symmetries in Gravity and Supergravity in the light-cone gauge 
    MAJUMDAR, SUCHETA (Dept. of Physics, 2018-06)
    This thesis examines the symmetries in gravity and supergravity in four dimensions in the light-cone gauge. The initial focus of the thesis is revisiting pure gravity in four dimensions in the light-cone gauge. We describe ...
  • Yang-Mills theories, Quadratic forms and Nicolai maps 
    PANDEY, CHETAN (2022-05)
    In this thesis, we examine supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories from a non-standard perspective, namely from that of a Nicolai map, a non-linear transformation of the bosonic fields that maps the full interacting theory to ...
