Stable skyrmions from extra dimensions
Alex Pomarol, Andrea Wulzer
We show that skyrmions arising from compact five dimensional models have stable sizes. We numerically obtain the skyrmion configurations and calculate their size and energy. Althou…
Effective Action and Holography in 5D Gauge Theories
Giuliano Panico, Andrea Wulzer
We apply the holographic method to 5D gauge theories on the warped interval. Our treatment includes the scalars associated with the fifth gauge field component, which appear as 4D…
Orbifold resolutions with general profile
Andrea Wulzer
A very general class of resolved versions of the C/Z_N, T^2/Z_N and S^1/Z_2 orbifolds is considered and the free theory of 6D chiral fermions studied on it. As the orbifold limit i…
Orbifold resolutions and fermion localization
Marco Serone, Andrea Wulzer
We study the Dirac equation of chiral fermions on a regularized version of the two-dimensional T^2/Z_2 orbifold, where the conical singularities are replaced by suitable spherical…
Gauge-Higgs Unification in six dimensions
Andrea Wulzer
Motivated by the pressing problem of the ``little hierarchies'', the possibility of realizing a consistent model of Electroweak Symmetry Breaking via the so-called ``Gauge-Higgs Un…
Gauge-Higgs Unification in Orbifold Models
C. A. Scrucca, M. Serone, L. Silvestrini +1
Six-dimensional orbifold models where the Higgs field is identified with some internal component of a gauge field are considered. We classify all possible T^2/Z_N orbifold construc…
