Two-dimensional arrays of nonlinear electric oscillators are considered theoretically, where nearest neighbors are coupled by relatively small, constant, but non-equal capacitors. The dynamics is approximately reduced to a weakly…
We construct exact vortex solutions in 3+1 dimensions to a theory which is an extension, due to Gies, of the Skyrme-Faddeev model, and that is believed to describe some aspects of the low energy limit of the pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory.…
We investigate some properties of thick vortices and thick monopoles in the SU(2) lattice gauge theory by inserting operators which create these excitations. Some quantities associated with the dynamical behaviour of thick vortices and…

Energy transfers from larger to smaller scales in turbulence. This energy cascade is a process of the creation of smaller-scale coherent vortices by larger ones. In our recent study (Yoneda, Goto and Tsuruhashi 2021), we reformulated the…
As a simplified model of randomly pinned vortex lattices or charge-density waves, we study the random-field XY model on square ($d=2$) and simple cubic ($d=3$) lattices. We argue, and confirm in simulations, that the spacing between…
The focusing cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in two dimensions admits vortex solitons, standing wave solutions with spatial structure, Qm(r,theta) = e^{i m theta} Rm(r). In the case of spin m = 1, we prove there exists a class of…
