Dimensionally reduced SYM at large-: an intriguing Coulomb approximation

Daniele Dorigoni, Gabriele Veneziano, Jacek Wosiek

We consider the light-cone (LC) gauge and LC quantization of the dimensional reduction of super Yang Mills theory from four to two dimensions. After integrating out all unphysical…

Entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals in conformal field theory II

Pasquale Calabrese, John Cardy, Erik Tonni

We continue the study of the entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals in conformal field theories that we started in J. Stat. Mech. (2009) P11001. We compute Trρ_A^n for any…

A Faddeev-Niemi Solution that Does Not Satisfy Gauss' Law

Jarah Evslin, Simone Giacomelli

Faddeev and Niemi have proposed a reformulation of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in terms of a U(1) gauge theory with 8 off-shell degrees of freedom. We present a solution to Faddeev and…

Riemann-Hilbert treatment of Liouville theory on the torus

Pietro Menotti

We apply a perturbative technique to study classical Liouville theory on the torus. After mapping the problem on the cut-plane we give the perturbative treatment for a weak source.…

Group Theory of Non-Abelian Vortices

Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori, Sven Bjarke Gudnason +4

We investigate the structure of the moduli space of multiple BPS non-Abelian vortices in U(N) gauge theory with N fundamental Higgs fields, focusing our attention on the action of…

Monopole-vortex complex in a theta vacuum

Kenichi Konishi, Alberto Michelini, Keisuke Ohashi

We discuss aspects of the monopole-vortex complex soliton arising in a hierarchically broken gauge system, G to H to 1, in a theta vacuum of the underlying G theory. Here we focus…

The Surface Layers Dual to Hydrodynamic Boundaries

Jarah Evslin, Giovanni Ricco

The AdS/hydrodynamics correspondence provides a 1-1 map between large wavelength features of AdS black branes and conformal fluid flows. In this note we consider boundaries between…

Non-Abelian vortex dynamics: Effective world-sheet action

Sven Bjarke Gudnason, Yunguo Jiang, Kenichi Konishi

The low-energy vortex effective action is constructed in a wide class of systems in a color-flavor locked vacuum, which generalizes the results found earlier in the context of U(N)…

Vortices in (2+1)d Conformal Fluids

Jarah Evslin, Chethan Krishnan

We study isolated, stationary, axially symmetric vortex solutions in (2+1)-dimensional viscous conformal fluids. The equations describing them can be brought to the form of three c…

Fractional and semi-local non-Abelian Chern-Simons vortices

Sven Bjarke Gudnason

In this paper we study fractional as well as semi-local Chern-Simons vortices in G = U(1) x SO(2M) and G = U(1) x USp(2M) theories. The master equations are solved numerically usin…

Running Boundary Condition

Satoshi Ohya, Makoto Sakamoto, Motoi Tachibana

In this paper we argue that boundary condition may run with energy scale. As an illustrative example, we consider one-dimensional quantum mechanics for a spinless particle that fre…

New Results on Non-Abelian Vortices - further insights into monopole, vortex and confinement

Kenichi Konishi

We discuss some of the latest results concerning the non-Abelian vortices. The first concerns the construction of non-Abelian BPS vortices based on general gauge groups of the form…

On Holographic Superconductors with DC Current

Daniel Areán, Matteo Bertolini, Jarah Evslin +1

We study direct currents in a simple holographic realization of a superconducting film. We investigate how the presence of a DC current affects the superconducting phase transition…

Low-energy U(1) x USp(2M) gauge theory from simple high-energy gauge group

Sven Bjarke Gudnason, Kenichi Konishi

We give an explicit example of the embedding of a near BPS low-energy (U(1) x USp(2M))/Z_2 gauge theory into a high-energy theory with a simple gauge group and adjoint matter conte…
