Inflation from Minkowski Space

David Pirtskhalava, Luca Santoni, Enrico Trincherini +1

We propose a class of scalar models that, once coupled to gravity, lead to cosmologies that smoothly and stably connect an inflationary quasi-de Sitter universe to a low, or even z…

The infrared problem in QED: A lesson from a model with Coulomb interaction and realistic photon emission

G. Morchio, F. Strocchi

The scattering of photons and heavy classical Coulomb interacting particles, with realistic particle-photon interaction (without particle recoil) is studied adopting the Koopman fo…

Holographic QCD with Dynamical Flavors

Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone

Gravity solutions describing the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD with dynamical flavors are presented. The field theory is studied in the Veneziano limit, at first o…

Vortex Zero Modes, Large Flux Limit and Ambjørn-Nielsen-Olesen Magnetic Instabilities

Stefano Bolognesi, Chandrasekhar Chatterjee, Sven Bjarke Gudnason +1

In the large flux limit vortices become flux tubes with almost constant magnetic field in the interior region. This occurs in the case of non-Abelian vortices as well, and the stud…

Entanglement entropy production in gravitational collapse: covariant regularization and solvable models

Eugenio Bianchi, Tommaso De Lorenzo, Matteo Smerlak

We study the dynamics of vacuum entanglement in the process of gravitational collapse and subsequent black hole evaporation. In the first part of the paper, we introduce a covarian…

Monopole-vortex complex at large distances and nonAbelian duality

Chandrasekhar Chatterjee, Kenichi Konishi

We discuss the large-distance approximation of the monopole-vortex complex soliton in a hierarchically broken gauge system, SU(N+1) - > SU(N) x U(1) - > 1, in a color-flavor locked…

Baby Skyrme Model, Near-BPS Approximations and Supersymmetric Extensions

S. Bolognesi, W. Zakrzewski

We study the baby Skyrme model as a theory that interpolates between two distinct BPS systems. For this a near-BPS approximation can be used which, however, involves a small deviat…

Weighted power counting and chiral dimensional regularization

Damiano Anselmi

We define a modified dimensional-regularization technique that overcomes several difficulties of the ordinary technique, and is specially designed to work efficiently in chiral and…

Instanton Bags, High Density Holographic QCD and Chiral Symmetry Restoration

S. Bolognesi

We describe the simplest example of an instanton bag in Euclidean space. It consists of a monopole wall and a Kaluza-Klein monopole wall, lifted to one higher dimension, trapping t…

Local thermodynamical equilibrium and the beta frame for a quantum relativistic fluid

F. Becattini, L. Bucciantini, E. Grossi +1

We discuss the concept of local thermodynamical equilibrium in relativistic hydrodynamics in flat spacetime in a quantum statistical framework without an underlying kinetic descrip…

Inequivalence of Coset Constructions for Spacetime Symmetries

Paolo Creminelli, Marco Serone, Gabriele Trevisan +1

Non-linear realizations of spacetime symmetries can be obtained by a generalization of the coset construction valid for internal ones. The physical equivalence of different represe…

Adler-Bardeen theorem and manifest anomaly cancellation to all orders in gauge theories

Damiano Anselmi

We reconsider the Adler-Bardeen theorem for the cancellation of gauge anomalies to all orders, when they vanish at one loop. Using the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism and combining th…
