In a neighborhood of isolated point of a domain of a metric space, a behavior of generalized quasiconformal mappings is studied. It is proved that, mappings mentioned above have continuous extension to the domain at some additional…
We present an analytical theory of domain wall tilt due to a transverse in-plane magnetic field in a ferromagnetic nanostrip with out-of-plane anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). The theory treats the domain walls as…
Domain wall fermions provide a complimentary alternative to traditional lattice fermion approaches. By introducing an extra dimension, the amount of chiral symmetry present in the lattice theory can be controlled in a linear way. This…
In this paper we prove a $K$-homology index theorem for the Toeplitz operators obtained from the multishifts of the Bergman space on several classes of egg-like domains. This generalizes our theorem with Douglas and Yu on the unit ball.
We study the dynamics of domain walls in Einstein-Born-Infeld-dilaton theory. Dilaton is non-trivially coupled with the Born-Infeld electromagnetic field. We find three different types of solutions consistent with the dynamic domain walls.…
We consider two-dimensional Yang-Mills theories on arbitrary Riemann surfaces. We introduce a generalized Yang-Mills action, which coincides with the ordinary one on flat surfaces but differs from it in its coupling to two-dimensional…
We give a short proof of the convergence to the boundary of Riemann maps on varying domains. Our proof provides a uniform approach to several ad-hoc constructions that have recently appeared in the literature.
Previous path integral treatments of Yang-Mills on a Riemann surface automatically sum over principal fiber bundles of all possible topological types in computing quantum expectations. This paper extends the path integral formulation to…
Index theorem is formulated in noncommutative geometry with finite degrees of freedom by using Ginsparg-Wilson relation. It is extended to the case where the gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken. Dynamical analysis about topological…

The gravitational impact inside and outside of a domain wall is studied in the context of $f(R)$ gravity theory. The function $f(R)$ is found which satisfies the stability conditions. Our results imply that the domain wall may cause…
This paper stresses the strong link between the existence of partial holomorphic connections on the normal bundle of a foliation seen as a quotient of the ambient tangent bundle and the extendability of a foliation to an infinitesimal…
Domain walls in strongly coupled gauge theories are discussed. A general mechanism is suggested automatically leading to massless gauge bosons localized on the wall. In one of the models considered, outside the wall the theory is in the…
$4d$ ${\mathcal N}=1$ super Yang-Mills (SYM) with simply connected gauge group $G$ has $h$ gapped vacua arising from the spontaneously broken discrete $R$-symmetry, where $h$ is the dual Coxeter number of $G$. Therefore, the theory admits…
For some class of mappings, there are investigated problems connected with a possibility of continuous extension to a boundary on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, for so-called ring mappings, there is proved a result related to…
We introduce a mathematician-friendly formulation of the physicist-friendly derivation of the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index of our previous paper. Our viewpoint sheds some new light on the interplay among the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary…
In this paper we analyze the problem of the geodesic connectedness of subsets of Riemannian manifolds. By using variational methods, the geodesic connectedness of open domains (whose boundaries can be not differentiable and not convex) of a…
The effective field, which plays the part of the vierbein in general relativity, can have topologically stable surfaces, vierbein domain walls, where the effective contravariant metric is degenerate. We consider vierbein walls separating…
We study properties of domain walls in the symmetron model, in which the scalar gravitational degree of freedom decouples from matter in regions of high density, and exhibits a spontaneously broken $Z_2$ symmetry at low densities. The…
We classify the cosmological behaviors of the domain wall under junctions between two spacetimes in terms of various parameters: cosmological constants of bulk spacetime, a tension of a domain wall, and mass parameters of the black…
