    • Higher Derivative Corrections to O-Plane Actions 
      Wang, Zhao (2014-11-17)
      Higher derivative corrections to effective actions are very important and of great interest in string theory. The aim of this dissertation is to develop a method to constrain the higher derivative corrections to O-plane ...
    • Supersymmetric Curvature Squared Invariants in Five and Six Dimensions 
      Ozkan, Mehmet (2013-07-24)
      In this dissertation, we investigatethe supersymmetric completion of curvature squared invariants in five and six dimensionsas well as the construction of off-shell Poincar´e supergravities and their matter couplings. We ...
