Effective Action of Domain Wall Networks

Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori, Takayuki Nagashima +3

U(Nc) gauge theory with Nf fundamental scalars admits BPS junctions of domain walls. When the networks/webs of these walls contain loops, their size moduli give localized massless…

Non-Abelian duality from vortex moduli: a dual model of color-confinement

Minoru Eto, Luca Ferretti, Kenichi Konishi +5

It is argued that the dual transformation of non-Abelian monopoles occurring in a system with gauge symmetry breaking G -> H is to be defined by setting the low-energy H system in…

The Shape of Instantons : Cross-Section of Supertubes and Dyonic Instantons

Heng-Yu Chen, Minoru Eto, Koji Hashimoto

We explore the correspondence between Yang-Mills instantons and algebraic curves. The curve is defined by Higgs zero locus of dyonic instantons in 1+4 dimensional Yang-Mills-Higgs…

Solitons in Supersymmety Breaking Meta-Stable Vacua

Minoru Eto, Koji Hashimoto, Seiji Terashima

In recently found supersymmetry-breaking meta-stable vacua of the supersymmetric QCD, we examine possible exsitence of solitons. Homotopy groups of the moduli space of the meta-sta…

Universal Reconnection of Non-Abelian Cosmic Strings

Minoru Eto, Koji Hashimoto, Giacomo Marmorini +3

We show that local/semilocal strings in Abelian/non-Abelian gauge theories with critical couplings always reconnect classically in collision, by using moduli space approximation. T…

Solitons in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories: Moduli Matrix Approach

Minoru Eto, Youichi Isozumi, Muneto Nitta +2

We review our recent works on solitons in U(Nc) gauge theories with Nf (>Nc) Higgs fields in the fundamental representation, which possess eight supercharges. The moduli matrix is…

Non-Abelian Vortices of Higher Winding Numbers

Minoru Eto, Kenichi Konishi, Giacomo Marmorini +4

We make a detailed study of the moduli space of winding number two (k=2) axially symmetric vortices (or equivalently, of co-axial composite of two fundamental vortices), occurring…

Manifestly Supersymmetric Effective Lagrangians on BPS Solitons

Minoru Eto, Youichi Isozumi, Muneto Nitta +2

A systematic method to obtain the effective Lagrangian on the BPS background in supersymmetric gauge theories is worked out, taking domain walls and vortices as concrete examples.…

Solitons in the Higgs phase -- the moduli matrix approach --

Minoru Eto, Youichi Isozumi, Muneto Nitta +2

We review our recent work on solitons in the Higgs phase. We use U(N_C) gauge theory with N_F Higgs scalar fields in the fundamental representation, which can be extended to posses…

Non-Abelian Vortices on Cylinder -- Duality between vortices and walls

Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori, Youichi Isozumi +4

We investigate vortices on a cylinder in supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theory with hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We identify moduli space of periodic vortic…
