Dynamics of cosmic strings with higher-dimensional windings
Daisuke Yamauchi, Matthew J. Lake
We consider F-strings with arbitrary configurations in the Minkowski directions of a higher-dimensional spacetime, which also wrap and spin around subcycles of constant radiu…

A Generalisation of the Nielsen-Olesen Vortex: Non-cylindrical strings in a modified Abelian-Higgs model
Matthew Lake, John Ward
We modify the standard Abelian-Higgs model by introducing spatially-dependent couplings for the scalar and vector fields. We investigate static, non-cylindrically symmetric solutio…

String Necklaces and Primordial Black Holes from Type IIB Strings
Matthew Lake, Steven Thomas, John Ward
We consider a model of static cosmic string loops in type IIB string theory, where the strings wrap cycles within the internal space. The strings are not topologically stabilised,…
