Il teorema della mappa di Riemann

Il teorema della mappa di Riemann è un risultato fondamentale dell'analisi complessa che afferma l'esistenza di un biolomorfismo tra un qualsiasi dominio semplicemente connesso incluso strettamente nel piano ed il disco unità. Si tratta di un teorema di grande importanza e generalità, dato che non si fa alcuna ipotesi sul bordo del dominio considerato. Inoltre ha applicazioni in diverse aree della matematica, ad esempio nella topologia: può infatti essere usato per dimostrare che due domini semplicemente connessi del piano sono tra loro omeomorfi. Presentiamo in questa tesi due diverse dimostrazioni del teorema.

Black hole evaporation and stress tensor correlations

General Relativity is one of the greatest scientific achievementes of the 20th century along with quantum theory. These two theories are extremely beautiful and they are well verified by experiments, but they are apparently incompatible. Hints towards understanding these problems can be derived studying Black Holes, some the most puzzling solutions of General Relativity. The main topic of this Master Thesis is the study of Black Holes, in particular the Physics of Hawking Radiation. After a short review of General Relativity, I study in detail the Schwarzschild solution with particular emphasis on the coordinates systems used and the mathematical proof of the classical laws of Black Hole "Thermodynamics". Then I introduce the theory of Quantum Fields in Curved Spacetime, from Bogolubov transformations to the Schwinger-De Witt expansion, useful for the renormalization of the stress energy tensor. After that I introduce a 2D model of gravitational collapse to study the Hawking radiation phenomenon. Particular emphasis is given to the analysis of the quantum states, from correlations to the physical implication of this quantum effect (e.g. Information Paradox, Black Hole Thermodynamics). Then I introduce the renormalized stress energy tensor. Using the Schwinger-De Witt expansion I renormalize this object and I compute it analytically in the various quantum states of interest. Moreover, I study the correlations between these objects. They are interesting because they are linked to the Hawking radiation experimental search in acoustic Black Hole models. In particular I find that there is a characteristic peak in correlations between points inside and outside the Black Hole region, which correpsonds to entangled excitations inside and outside the Black Hole. These peaks hopefully will be measurable soon in supersonic BEC.

Analysis of the Kohn Laplacian on the Heisenberg Group and on Cauchy-Riemann Manifolds

The purpose of this study is to analyse the regularity of a differential operator, the Kohn Laplacian, in two settings: the Heisenberg group and the strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds. The Heisenberg group is defined as a space of dimension 2n+1 with a product. It can be seen in two different ways: as a Lie group and as the boundary of the Siegel UpperHalf Space. On the Heisenberg group there exists the tangential CR complex. From this we define its adjoint and the Kohn-Laplacian. Then we obtain estimates for the Kohn-Laplacian and find its solvability and hypoellipticity. For stating L^p and Holder estimates, we talk about homogeneous distributions. In the second part we start working with a manifold M of real dimension 2n+1. We say that M is a CR manifold if some properties are satisfied. More, we say that a CR manifold M is strongly pseudoconvex if the Levi form defined on M is positive defined. Since we will show that the Heisenberg group is a model for the strongly pseudo-convex CR manifolds, we look for an osculating Heisenberg structure in a neighborhood of a point in M, and we want this structure to change smoothly from a point to another. For that, we define Normal Coordinates and we study their properties. We also examinate different Normal Coordinates in the case of a real hypersurface with an induced CR structure. Finally, we define again the CR complex, its adjoint and the Laplacian operator on M. We study these new operators showing subelliptic estimates. For that, we don't need M to be pseudo-complex but we ask less, that is, the Z(q) and the Y(q) conditions. This provides local regularity theorems for Laplacian and show its hypoellipticity on M.

Eulero, Mascheroni e Riemann costanti ed ipotesi

In questa tesi si descrivono la funzione zeta di Riemann, la costante di Eulero-Mascheroni e la funzione gamma di Eulero. Si riportano i legami tra questi e si illustra brevemente l'ipotesi di Riemann degli zeri non banali della funzione zeta, ovvero l'ipotesi della distribuzione dei numeri primi nella retta dei numeri reali.

Obiettivo della tesi è analizzare e testare i principali approcci di Machine Learning applicabili in contesti semantici, partendo da algoritmi di Statistical Relational Learning, quali Relational Probability Trees, Relational Bayesian Classifiers e Relational Dependency Networks, per poi passare ad approcci basati su fattorizzazione tensori, in particolare CANDECOMP/PARAFAC, Tucker e RESCAL.

String inflationary models with non-monotonic slow-roll and detectable tensor modes

The first chapter of this work has the aim to provide a brief overview of the history of our Universe, in the context of string theory and considering inflation as its possible application to cosmological problems. We then discuss type IIB string compactifications, introducing the study of the inflaton, a scalar field candidated to describe the inflation theory. The Large Volume Scenario (LVS) is studied in the second chapter paying particular attention to the stabilisation of the Kähler moduli which are four-dimensional gravitationally coupled scalar fields which parameterise the size of the extra dimensions. Moduli stabilisation is the process through which these particles acquire a mass and can become promising inflaton candidates. The third chapter is devoted to the study of Fibre Inflation which is an interesting inflationary model derived within the context of LVS compactifications. The fourth chapter tries to extend the zone of slow-roll of the scalar potential by taking larger values of the field φ. Everything is done with the purpose of studying in detail deviations of the cosmological observables, which can better reproduce current experimental data. Finally, we present a slight modification of Fibre Inflation based on a different compactification manifold. This new model produces larger tensor modes with a spectral index in good agreement with the date released in February 2015 by the Planck satellite.
