Framework for the Forced Soliton Equation: Regularization, Numerical Solutions, and Perturbation Theory

Zachary J. Allamon, Quentin A. Hales, Andrew B. Royston +2

The forced soliton equation is the starting point for semiclassical computations with solitons away from the small momentum transfer regime. This paper develops necessary analytica…

Supersymmetry of the D3/D5 Defect Field Theory

Sophia K. Domokos, Andrew B. Royston

Four-dimensional N=4 super Yang-Mills, with a codimension-one defect breaking half of the supersymmetry, arises as the field theory description of the D3/D5 intersection in the hol…

Simulating Magnetic Monopole-Defect Dynamics

Gannon E. Lenhart, Andrew B. Royston, Keaton E. Wright

We present simulations of one magnetic monopole interacting with multiple magnetic singularities. Three-dimensional plots of the energy density are constructed from explicit soluti…

Accelerating Solitons

Ilarion V. Melnikov, Constantinos Papageorgakis, Andrew B. Royston

We present the saddle-point approximation for the effective Hamiltonian of the quantum kink in two-dimensional linear sigma models to all orders in the time-derivative expansion. W…

Nonabelian Probes In Holography

Sophia K. Domokos, Andrew B. Royston

We find the range of parameters for which the open string physics on probe Dq-branes in the near-horizon geometry of Dp-branes decouples from gravity, and is well-approximated by a…

Holography for field theory solitons

Sophia K. Domokos, Andrew B. Royston

We extend a well-known D-brane construction of the AdS/dCFT correspondence to non-abelian defects. We focus on the bulk side of the correspondence and show that there exists a regi…
