EFT for Vortices with Dilaton-dependent Localized Flux
C. P. Burgess, Ross Diener, M. Williams
We study how codimension-two objects like vortices back-react gravitationally with their environment in theories (such as 4D or higher-dimensional supergravity) where the bulk is d…

Self-Tuning at Large (Distances): 4D Description of Runaway Dilaton Capture
C. P. Burgess, Ross Diener, M. Williams
We complete here a three-part study (see also arXiv:1506.08095 and 1508.00856) of how codimension-two objects back-react gravitationally with their environment, with particular int…

The Gravity of Dark Vortices: Effective Field Theory for Branes and Strings Carrying Localized Flux
C. P. Burgess, Ross Diener, M. Williams
A Nielsen-Olesen vortex usually sits in an environment that expels the flux that is confined to the vortex, so flux is not present both inside and outside. We construct vortices fo…
