Fermions in a Global Monopole Background

Hai Ren

We study the scattering of fermions in a ``global monopole'' background metric. This is the four-dimensional analogue of the scattering on a cone in three dimensions. The scatterin…

Time-Dependent Open String Solutions in 2+1 Dimensional Gravity

Hai Ren

We find general, time-dependent solutions produced by open string sources carrying no momentum flow in 2+1 dimensional gravity. The local Poincaré group elements associated with th…

wormholes and topological charge

S. Alexander Ridgway

I investigate solutions to the Euclidean Einstein-matter field equations with topology in a theory with a massless periodic scalar field and electromagnet…

Radiation from a moving Scalar Source

Hai Ren, Erick J. Weinberg

We study classical radiation and quantum bremsstrahlung effect of a moving point scalar source. Our classical analysis provides another example of resolving a well-known apparent p…

Vortex Dynamics in Selfdual Maxwell-Higgs Systems with Uniform Background Electric Charge Density

Ki-Myeong Lee

We introduce selfdual Maxwell-Higgs systems with uniform background electric charge density and show that the selfdual equations satisfied by topological vortices can be reduced to…

Anomaly Cancellation in 2+1 dimensions in the presence of a domainwall mass

Shailesh Chandrasekharan

A Fermion in 2+1 dimensions, with a mass function which depends on one spatial coordinate and passes through a zero ( a domain wall mass), is considered. In this model, originally…

Quark Mass Renormalization on the Lattice with Staggered Fermions

Weonjong Lee

The QCD light quark mass renormalized at a 1 GeV scale in the scheme is obtained from the numerical results of the lattice QCD simulation with staggered fermions.…

Self-Intersection, Axial Anomaly and the String Picture of QCD

Ravit Efraty

The leading, planar diagrams of the expansion and the usual string description suggest that quarks propagate on the boundary of a two-dimensional world surface. We restrict…

Intersecting families of sets and the topology of cones in economics

Graciela Chichilnisky

Two classical problems in economics, the existence of a market equilibrium and the existence of social choice functions, are formalized here by the properties of a family of cones…

The Topological Entropy of One-dimensional Maps: Approximations and Bounds

N. J. Balmforth, E. A. Spiegel, C. Tresser

We present a method for computing the topological entropy of one-dimensional maps. As an approximation scheme, the algorithm converges rapidly and provides both upper and lower bou…

Chaotic Pulse Trains

N. J. Balmforth, G. R. Ierley, E. A. Spiegel

We study a third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation whose solutions, under certain specific conditions, are individual pulses. These correspond to homoclinic orbits in…

Monopole Vector Spherical Harmonics

Erick J. Weinberg

Eigenfunctions of total angular momentum for a charged vector field interacting with a magnetic monopole are constructed and their properties studied. In general, these eigenfuncti…

Dynamics of Earthquake Faults

J. M. Carlson, J. S. Langer, B. E. Shaw

We present an overview of our ongoing studies of the rich dynamical behavior of the uniform, deterministic Burridge--Knopoff model of an earthquake fault. We discuss the behavior o…

Advection of vector fields by chaotic flows

N. J. BALMFORTH, P. CVITANOVIC, G. R. IERLEY +2

We have introduced a new transfer operator for chaotic flows whose leading eigenvalue yields the dynamo rate of the fast kinematic dynamo and applied cycle expansion of the Fredhol…

Hard Thermal Loops, Gauged WZNW Action and the Energy of Hot Quark-Gluon Plasma

V. P. Nair

The generating functional for hard thermal loops in QCD is rewritten in terms of a gauged WZNW action by introducing an auxiliary field. This shows in a simple way that the contrib…

Semi-Analytical Solution of the Theory on an Lattice

M. Klomfass

Investigating the cutoff dependence of the Higgs mass triviality bound, the theory is formulated on an lattice which preserves Lorentz invariance to a higher degree tha…

Color Diffusion and Conductivity in a Quark-Gluon Plasma

Alexei V. Selikhov, Miklos Gyulassy

Color diffusion is shown to be an important dissipative property of quark-gluon plasmas that rapidly damps collective color modes. We derive the characteristic color relaxation tim…

Average case complexity of linear multivariate problems

Henryk Woźniakowski

We study the average case complexity of a linear multivariate problem $(\lmp)$ defined on functions of variables. We consider two classes of information. The first $\lstd$ cons…

Multiple Collisions and Induced Gluon Bremsstrahlung in QCD

Mikols Gyulassy, Xin-Nian Wang

Induced soft gluon bremsstrahlung associated with multiple collisions is calculated via perturbative QCD. We derive the non-abelian analog of the Landau-Pomeranchuk effect that sup…

High Temperature Response Functions and the Non-Abelian Kubo Formula

Momentum Analyticity and Finiteness of the 1-Loop Superstring Amplitude

Eric D'Hoker, D. H. Phong

The Type II Superstring amplitude to 1-loop order is given by an integral of -functions over the moduli space of tori, which diverges for real momenta. We construct the…
