A large class of quantum and statistical field theoretical models, encompassing relevant condensed matter and non-abelian gauge systems, are defined in terms of complex actions. As the ordinary Monte-Carlo methods are useless in dealing…
This is the first of a series of papers discussing canonical aspects of the two-dimensional non-linear sigma model in the presence of conformal defects on the world-sheet in the framework of gerbe theory. In the paper, the basic tools of…
In this paper we continue the program, initiated in Ref. hep-th/0112246, to investigate an integrable noncommutative version of the sine-Gordon model. We discuss the origin of the extra constraint which the field function has to satisfy in…
Symmetric Space Sine-Gordon theories are two-dimensional massive integrable field theories, generalising the Sine-Gordon and Complex Sine-Gordon theories. To study their integrability properties on the real line, it is necessary to…
The phase structure of the layered sine-Gordon (LSG) model is investigated in terms of symmetry considerations by means of a differential renormalization group (RG) method, within the local potential approximation. The RG analysis of the…
Standard two-dimensional orientation-field based phase-field models rely on a continuous scalar field to represent crystallographic orientation. The corresponding order parameter space is the unit circle, which is not simply-connected. This…
The double sine-Gordon field theory in the weak confinement regime is studied. It represents the small non-integrable deformation of the standard sine-Gordon model caused by the cosine perturbation with the frequency reduced by the factor…
To date, computational methods for modeling defects (vacancies, adsorbates, etc.) rely on periodic supercells in which the defect is far enough from its repeated image such that they can be assumed non-interacting. Yet, the relative…
We report on various nanocarbons formed from a unique structural pattern containing two pentagons, three hexagons and two heptagons, resulting from local rearrange- ments around a divacancy in pristine graphene or nanotubes. This defect can…
We prove the existence of an infinite number of internal (shape) modes of sine-Gordon solitons in the presence of some inhomogeneous long-range forces, provided some conditions are satisfied.
This paper is a short survey of the recent results on examples of periodic two-dimensional continued fractions (in Klein's model). In the last part of this paper we formulate some questions, problems and conjectures on geometrical…
We sketch a procedure to capture general non-invertible symmetries of a d-dimensional quantum field theory in the data of a higher-category, which captures the local properties of topological defects associated to the symmetries. We also…
The structure of integrable field theories in the presence of defects is discussed in terms of boundary functions under the Lagrangian formalism. Explicit examples of bosonic and fermionic theories are considered. In particular, the…

We review some recent ideas regarding classical topological objects in dual superconductor models that could represent different confining states of the gluon field. We also comment about natural components in (magnetic) ensembles that…
Depth-averaged systems of equations describing the motion of fluid-sediment mixtures have been widely adopted by scientists in pursuit of models that can predict the paths of dangerous overland flows of debris. As models have become…
We construct defects describing the transition between different phases of gauged linear sigma models with higher rank abelian gauge groups, as well as defects embedding these phases into the GLSMs. Our construction refers entirely to the…
The goal of this work is to build a dynamical theory of defects for quantum spin systems. A kinematic theory for an indefinite number of defects is first introduced exploiting distinguishable Fock space. Dynamics are then incorporated by…
We propose a new mechanism for formation of topological defects in a U(1) model with a local gauge symmetry. This mechanism leads to definite predictions, which are qualitatively different from those of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism of global…
Multi-phase material are frequently applied in a wide variety of products, as they posses a unique set of properties by combining two or more distinct phases at the level of the microstructure. Although the macroscopic stiffness and…
