We study the Renormalization Group (RG) flow of critical bosonic background fields in the framework of the RG approach to string theory. In this approach quantum field theory beta -functions are the extra inputs in solving the string theory sigma-model equations. We study two different situations, the first one is the Yang-Mills theory where the coupling constant diverges in the infrared limit. The second case corresponds to a type of theories where the beta -function has a pole in the infrared limit and it changes sign through the pole (as in N = 1 super-Yang-Mills theory). For this case in the strong coupling branch, in the infrared, there is an interval of values of the coupling in which the theory only leads to confinement. We have obtained this range. We also mention the theories with conformal-fixed points and their relation to theories with a pole in the beta -functions. We calculate the Wilson loops in these theories.

Algebraic curves hermitian lattices and hypergeometric functions Zeytin, Ayberk; Önsiper, Mustafa Hurşit; Department of Mathematics (2011) The aim of this work is to study the interaction between two classical objects of mathematics: the modular group, and the absolute Galois group. The latter acts on the category of finite index subgroups of the modular group. However, it is a task out of reach do understand this action in this generality. We propose a lattice which parametrizes a certain system of ”geometric” elements in this category. This system is setwise invariant under the Galois action, and there is a hope that one can explicitly under...
Universal groups of intermediate growth and their invariant random subgroups Benli, Mustafa Gökhan; Nagnibeda, Tatiana (2015-07-01) We exhibit examples of groups of intermediate growth with ergodic continuous invariant random subgroups. The examples are the universal groups associated with a family of groups of intermediate growth.
Density functional theory investigation of two-dimensional dipolar fermions in a harmonic trap Toffoli, Hande; TANATAR, BİLAL (2014-08-13) We investigate the behavior of polarized dipolar fermions in a two-dimensional harmonic trap in the framework of the density functional theory (DFT) formalism using the local density approximation. We treat only a few particles interacting moderately. Important results were deduced concerning key characteristics of the system such as total energy and particle density. Our results indicate that, at variance with Coulombic systems, the exchangecorrelation component was found to provide a large contribution to...
Smooth manifolds with infinite fundamental group admitting no real projective structure Çoban, Hatice; Ozan, Yıldıray; Department of Mathematics (2017) In this thesis, we construct smooth manifolds with the infinite fundamental group Z_2*Z_2, for any dimension n>=4, admitting no real projective structure. They are first examples of manifolds in higher dimensions with infinite fundamental group admitting no real projective structures. The motivation of our study is the related work of Cooper and Goldman. They proved that RP^3#RP^3 does not admit any real projective structure and this is the first known example in dimension 3.
Topology optimization of 2.5D parts using the SIMP method with a variable thickness approach Kandemir, Volkan; Doğan, Oğuz; Yaman, Ulaş (Elsevier BV; 2018-06-10) In this study, the Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization (SIMP) topology optimization method is employed on the artifacts via keeping the penalization factor as unity. When the penalization is not carried out, the finite elements of the artifact have intermediate material densities. These density values are then used as the thicknesses of the corresponding finite elements and conformal surfaces are formed utilizing these heights in the proposed method. We evaluated the performance of the method with th...
