Excited oscillons and charge-swapping

Journal of High Energy Physics
We show that the charge-swapping phenomenon can be understood as a real valued oscillon carrying an excitation in imaginary direction in the target space.

A Smörgåsbord of Skyrmions

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We study static solutions of the standard Skyrme model with a pion mass. Using approximately 105 pseudo-random initial configurations made of single Skyrmions in the non-symmetrized product Ansatz and an automatic detection of repeated solutions, we find

Moduli spaces of instantons in flag manifold sigma models. Vortices in quiver gauge theories

Journal of High Energy Physics
In this paper, we discuss lumps (sigma model instantons) in flag manifold sigma models. In particular, we focus on the moduli space of BPS lumps in general Kähler flag manifold sigma models. Such a Kähler flag manifold, which takes the form U n 1 + ⋯ + n

Oscillons and bubbles in Q-ball dynamics

Journal of High Energy Physics
We show that, in the thin-wall regime, Q-ball-anti-Q-ball collisions reveal chaotic behaviour. This is explained by the resonant energy transfer mechanism triggered by the internal modes hosted by the Q-balls and by the existence of ephemeral states ...

Dynamically assisted Sauter-Schwinger effect — non-perturbative versus perturbative aspects

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
The Sauter-Schwinger effect predicts the creation of electron-positron pairs out of the quantum vacuum by a strong and slowly varying electric field.

A supersymmetric exotic field theory in (1+1) dimensions: one loop soliton quantum mass corrections

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We consider one loop quantum corrections to soliton mass for the N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric extension of the (1+1)-dimensional scalar field theory with the potential U (ϕ) = ϕ 2 cos2 (ln ϕ 2).

False vacuum decay of excited states in finite-time instanton calculus

Journal of High Energy Physics
Extracting information about a system’s metastable ground state energy employing functional methods usually hinges on utilizing the late-time behavior of the Euclidean propagator, practically impeding the possibility of determining decay widths of ...

Transplanckian censorship and global cosmic strings

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Large field excursions are required in a number of axion models of inflation. These models also possess global cosmic strings, around which the axion follows a path mirroring the inflationary trajectory. Cosmic strings are thus an interesting theoretical

JNR Skyrmions

Journal of High Energy Physics
The JNR ansatz provides a simple formula to obtain families of charge N self-dual SU(2) Yang-Mills instantons in four-dimensional Euclidean space, from the free data of N + 1 distinct points with associated positive weights.

Domain walls in a non-linear S 2 $$ {\mathbb{S}}^2 $$ -sigma model with homogeneous quartic polynomial potential

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this paper the domain wall solutions of a Ginzburg-Landau non-linear S 2 $$ {\mathbb{S}}^2 $$ -sigma hybrid model are exactly calculated. There exist two types of basic domain walls and two families of composite domain walls. The domain wall solutions
