Topological Interactions of Non-Abelian Vortices with Quasi-Particles in High Density QCD
Yuji Hirono, Takuya Kanazawa, Muneto Nitta
Non-Abelian vortices are topologically stable objects in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of dense QCD. We derive a dual Lagrangian starting with the Ginzburg-Landau effective L…
Non-Abelian Monopoles in the Higgs Phase
Muneto Nitta, Walter Vinci
We use the moduli matrix approach to study the moduli space of 1/4 BPS kinks supported by vortices in the Higgs phase of N = 2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories when non-zero mass…
Baryonic Bound State of Vortices in Multicomponent Superconductors
Muneto Nitta, Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori +1
We construct a bound state of three 1/3-quantized Josephson coupled vortices in three-component superconductors with intrinsic Josephson couplings, which may be relevant with regar…
Majorana meets Coxeter: Non-Abelian Majorana Fermions and Non-Abelian Statistics
Shigehiro Yasui, Kazunori Itakura, Muneto Nitta
We discuss statistics of vortices having zero-energy non-Abelian Majorana fermions inside them. Considering the system of multiple non-Abelian vortices, we derive a non-Abelian sta…
Quasi-Nambu-Goldstone Modes in Bose-Einstein Condensates
Shun Uchino, Michikazu Kobayashi, Muneto Nitta +1
We show that quasi-Nambu-Goldstone (NG) modes, which play prominent roles in high energy physics but have been elusive experimentally, can be realized with atomic Bose-Einstein con…
Group Theory of Non-Abelian Vortices
Minoru Eto, Toshiaki Fujimori, Sven Bjarke Gudnason +4
We investigate the structure of the moduli space of multiple BPS non-Abelian vortices in U(N) gauge theory with N fundamental Higgs fields, focusing our attention on the action of…
