Higher Derivative Corrections to Non-Abelian Vortex Effective Theory [PDF]
, 2012 We give a systematic method to calculate higher derivative corrections to low-energy effective theories of solitons, which are in general non-linear sigma models on the moduli spaces of the solitons. By applying it to the effective theory of a single BPS

Q-monopole-ball: a topological and nontopological soliton
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 Magnetic monopoles and Q-balls are examples of topological and nontopological solitons, respectively. A new soliton state with both topological and nontopological charges is shown to also exist, given a monopole sector with a portal coupling to an ...

Recrudescence of massive fermion production by oscillons
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We bring together the physics of preheating, following a period of inflation, and the dynamics of non-topological solitons, namely oscillons. We show that the oscillating condensate that makes up an oscillon can be an efficient engine for producing heavy

Confinement and moduli locking of Alice strings and monopoles
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We argue that strings (vortices) and monopoles are confined, when fields receiving nontrivial Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phases around a string develop vacuum expectation values (VEVs).

Scaling Identities for Solitons beyond Derrick's Theorem
, 2008 New integral identities satisfied by topological solitons in a range of classical field theories are presented. They are derived by considering independent length rescalings in orthogonal directions, or equivalently, from the conservation of the stress ...

Noncommutative Instantons and Solitons [PDF]
, 2003 I explain how to construct noncommutative BPS configurations in four and lower dimensions by solving linear matrix equations. Examples are instantons in D=4 Yang-Mills, monopoles in D=3 Yang-Mills-Higgs, and (moving) solitons in D=2+1 Yang-Mills-Higgs ...

The self-dual classical double copy, and the Eguchi-Hanson instanton
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 The double copy is a map from non-abelian gauge theories to gravity, that has been demonstrated both for scattering amplitudes and exact classical solutions.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Non-topological solitons such as Q-balls and Q-shells have been studied for scalar fields invariant under global and gauged U(1) symmetries. We generalize this frame-work to include a Proca mass for the gauge boson, which can arise either from ...

Vortex Strings and Four-Dimensional Gauge Dynamics
, 2004 We study the low-energy quantum dynamics of vortex strings in the Higgs phase of N=2 supersymmetric QCD. The exact BPS spectrum of the stretched string is shown to coincide with the BPS spectrum of the four-dimensional parent gauge theory.

Solitons on intersecting 3-branes [PDF]
, 2014 We consider a system consisting of a pair of D3 branes intersecting each other along a line such that half of the 16 supersymmetries are preserved. We then study the existence of magnetic monopole solutions corresponding to a D1-brane suspended between ...
