On String Swampland Conjectures from Black Holes Physics
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Torabian, Mahdi (Supervisor)
Abstract
Swampland conjectures are set of conditions that must be satisfied in a quantum field theory in order to be compatible with a theory of quantum gravity. These conditions have been deduced from the features of field theories, which are derived from the compactification of the additional dimensions of the string theory. However, it is thought that the mpatibility of these conditions with the theory of quantum gravity is independent of string theory. One of the important reasons is that the swampland conjectures can be obtained by examining the physics of black holes. Black hole is one of the quantum states of any quantum gravity theory. In this thesis, first we will have an overview of the...
The Study of Certain Evidence of Ooguri, Strominger, Vafa Conjecture for 4D Extremal Black Holes of Type and Heterotic Superstring Theories
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Arfaei, Hessamaddin (Supervisor)
Abstract
In 2004 Ooguri, Strominger, and Vafa could write the partition function of 4D N=2 extremal black holes in type IIA superstring theory as the square of the absolute value of the partition function of type A closed topological string theory, which had already been introduced by Edward Witten in 1990. In this study, T and S dualities were applied to the original conjecture of Ooguri, Strominger, and Vafa. By using T duality, we have verified that the conjecture holds for 4D N=2 extremal black holes of type IIB superstring theory to the one loop order in string coupling. In other words, one can write the partition function of these kinds of black holes as the square of the absolute value of...
