Brane Realization of Nambu Monopoles and Electroweak Strings

Minoru Eto, Kenichi Konishi, Muneto Nitta +1

In the standard model, the electroweak Z-string can end on a Nambu monopole, whose mass is calculated to be 689 GeV from the current precise experimental data assuming the new part…

Singular SQCD Vacua and Confinement

Simone Giacomelli, Kenichi Konishi

We revisit the study of confining vacua in the softly broken N=2 supersymmetric QCD, in the light of some recent developments in our understanding of the dynamics of N=2 gauge theo…

Subluminal Galilean Genesis

Paolo Creminelli, Kurt Hinterbichler, Justin Khoury +2

We put forward an improved version of the Galilean Genesis model that addresses the problem of superluminality. We demote the full conformal group to Poincare symmetry plus dilatio…

A note on higher-derivative actions for free higher-spin fields

Euihun Joung, Karapet Mkrtchyan

Higher-derivative theories of free higher-spin fields are investigated focusing on their symmetries. Generalizing familiar two-derivative constrained formulations, we first constru…

Supersymmetry Breaking on Gauged Non-Abelian Vortices

Kenichi Konishi, Muneto Nitta, Walter Vinci

There are a large number of systems characterized by a completely broken gauge symmetry, but with an unbroken global color-flavor diagonal symmetry, i.e., systems in the so-called…

Singular points in N=2 SQCD

Simone Giacomelli

We revisit the study of singular points in N=2 SQCD with classical gauge groups. Using a technique proposed recently by Gaiotto, Seiberg and Tachikawa we find that the low-energy p…

Accessory parameters for Liouville theory on the torus

Pietro Menotti

We give an implicit equation for the accessory parameter on the torus which is the necessary and sufficient condition to obtain the monodromy of the conformal factor. It is shown t…

Vortex counting from field theory

Toshiaki Fujimori, Taro Kimura, Muneto Nitta +1

The vortex partition function in 2d N = (2,2) U(N) gauge theory is derived from the field theoretical point of view by using the moduli matrix approach. The character for the tange…

Higher Derivative Corrections to Non-Abelian Vortex Effective Theory

Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori, Muneto Nitta +2

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 spac…

Comments on higher-spin holography

Xavier Bekaert, Euihun Joung, Jihad Mourad

The conjectured holographic duality between vector models with quartic interaction and higher-spin field theory in the bulk is reviewed, with emphasis on some versions and generali…
