Dynamics of global and local vortices with orientational moduli

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
The dynamics of both global and local vortices with non-Abelian orientational moduli is investigated in detail. Head-on collisions of these vortices are numerically simulated for parallel, anti-parallel and orthogonal internal orientations where we find ...

Instanton worldlines in five-dimensional Ω-deformed gauge theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We discuss the Bosonic sector of a class of supersymmetric non-Lorentzian five-dimensional gauge field theories with an SU(1, 3) conformal symmetry. These actions have a Lagrange multiplier which imposes a novel Ω-deformed anti-self-dual gauge field ...

Fractional Skyrmion molecules in a ℂP N−1 model

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We study fractional Skyrmions in a ℂP 2 baby Skyrme model with a generalization of the easy-plane potential. By numerical methods, we find stable, metastable, and unstable solutions taking the shapes of molecules.

Black holes, oscillating instantons and the Hawking-Moss transition

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Static oscillating bounces in Schwarzschild de Sitter spacetime are investigated. The oscillating bounce with many oscillations gives a super-thick bubble wall, for which the total vacuum energy increases while the mass of the black hole decreases due to

Boundary metrics on soliton moduli spaces

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
The geodesic approximation is a powerful method for studying the dynamics of BPS solitons. However, there are systems, such as BPS monopoles in three-dimensional hyperbolic space, where this approach is not applicable because the moduli space metric ...

Q-lump scattering

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Q-lumps are spinning planar topological solitons with stationary solutions that satisfy first-order Bogomolny equations. Q-lump scattering has previously been studied only in the charge two sector, by approximating time evolution by motion in the moduli ...

Topological sectors for heterotic M5-brane charges under Hypothesis H

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Assuming Fiorenza-Sati-Schreiber’s Hypothesis H, on the charge quantization of M-theory’s C -field, the topological sectors of the resulting String c2 (4)-valued higher gauge theory on a heterotic M5-brane are classified by homotopy classes of maps from ...

Stable Z-strings with topological polarization in two Higgs doublet model

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We find that a Z-string is stable in a wide range of parameter space of the two Higgs doublet model due to a split into a pair of two topological Z-strings with fractional Z fluxes.

False vacuum decay in gauge theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
The decay rate of a false vacuum is studied in gauge theory, paying particular attention to its gauge invariance. Although the decay rate should not depend on the gauge parameter ξ according to the Nielsen identity, the gauge invariance of the result of ...

The Moduli Space of BPS Domain Walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
N=2 SQED with several flavors admits multiple, static BPS domain wall solutions. We determine the explicit two-kink metric and examine the dynamics of colliding domain walls.
