Superconnections and index theoryKahle, Alexander Rudolf 11 September 2012 (has links)
This document presents a systematic investigation of the geometric index theory of Dirac operators coupled superconnections. A local version of the index theorem for Dirac operators coupled to superconnection is proved, and extended to families. An [eta]-invariant is defined, and it is shown to satisfy an APS-like theorem. A geometric determinant line bundle with section, metric, and connection is associated to a family of Dirac operators coupled to superconnections, and its holonomy is calculated in terms of the [eta]-invariant. / text

An index theorem in differential K-theoryKlonoff, Kevin Robert, 1972- 29 August 2008 (has links)
We construct a geometric model for differential K-theory, and prove it is isomorphic to the model proposed in [25]. We construct differential K-orientations for families and elucidate the pushforward map given in [25] in detail. We prove a geometric index theorem for odd dimensional manifolds. Finally, using this index theorem and the holonomy theorem of Bismut and Freed from [10], we prove what may be considered a special case of a geometric refinement of the Aityah-Singer index theorem. / text

Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics and the Gauss-Bonnet TheoremOlofsson, Rikard January 2018 (has links)
We introduce the formalism of supersymmetric quantum mechanics, including super-symmetry charges,Z2-graded Hilbert spaces, the chirality operator and the Wittenindex. We show that there is a one to one correspondence of fermions and bosons forenergies different than zero, which implies that the Witten index measures the dif-ference of fermions and bosons at the ground state. We argue that the Witten indexis the index of an elliptic operator. Quantization of the supersymmetric non-linearsigma model shows that the Witten index equals the Euler characteristic of the un-derlying Riemannian manifold over which the theory is defined. Finally, the pathintegral representation of the Witten index is applied to derive the Gauss-Bonnettheorem. Apart from this we introduce elementary mathematical background in thesubjects of topological invariance, Riemannian manifolds and index theory / Vi introducucerar formalismen f ̈or supersymmetrisk kvantmekanik, d ̈aribland super-symmetryladdningar,Z2-graderade Hilbertrum, kiralitetsoperatorn och Wittenin-dexet.
