We consider one loop quantum corrections to soliton mass for the ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric extension of the (1+1)-dimensional scalar field theory with the potential $U(\phi) = \phi^2 \cos^2\left(\ln \phi^2\right)$. First, we compute the…
In this paper we give the complete classification of solitons for a cubic NLS equation on the simplest network with a non-trivial topology: the tadpole graph, i.e. a ring with a half-line attached to it and free boundary conditions at the…
The Casimir energy for the classically stable configurations of the topological solitons in 2D quantum antiferromagnets is studied by performing the path-integral over quantum fluctuations. The magnon fluctuation around the solitons…
The first quantum mass corrections for the solitons of complex $sl(n)$ affine Toda field theory are calculated. The corrections are real and preserve the classical mass ratios. The formalism also proves that the solitons are classically…
In this series of lectures a method is developed to compute one-loop shifts to classical masses of kinks, multi-component kinks, and self-dual vortices. Canonical quantization is used to show that the mass shift induced by one-loop quantum…
We perform a two-loop calculation in Light Cone Perturbation Theory (LCPT) to evaluate the next-to-leading order nonsinglet splitting function. Our calculation demonstrates the methodology and feasibility of performing higher order…
We study to one-loop order the renormalization of QCD in the Coulomb gauge using the Hamitonian formalism. Divergences occur which might require counter-terms outside the Hamiltonian formalism, but they can be cancelled by a redefinition of…
In this paper we demonstrate that solitons of a simple real scalar field model that are {\it static and linearly stable} do exist when considered in a (3+1)-dimensional, spatially compact space-time background, the static Einstein universe,…
In several self-coupled quantum field theories when treated in semi-classical limit one obtains solitonic solutions determined by topology of the boundary conditions. Such solutions, e.g. magnetic monopole in unified theories…
We establish the existence of static, classically-stable, winding solitons in renormalizable three-dimensional gauge models, with topologically trivial target space and vacuum manifold. They are prototypes for possible analogous…
In this work, we investigate the solutions of vortices in the O(3)-sigma model with the gauge field governed by the Chern-Simons term and subject to a hyperbolic self-dual potential. We show that this model admits both topological and…
Exploiting the known structure of soliton solutions, obtained through the Hirota transformation, a quantized representation of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation on the soliton sector is constructed over a Fock space of particles,…
We review recent progress in the computation of leading quantum corrections to the energies of classical solitons with topological structure, including multi-soliton models in one space dimension and string configurations in three space…
We study the stability of the gauge hierarchy in hidden-sector supergravity theories. We show that a destabilizing tadpole can appear if a theory has a gauge- and global-symmetry singlet with renormalizable couplings to the visible fields.…
We propose the entanglement dipole polarization to describe the topological quadrupole phase. The quadrupole moment can be regarded as a pair of the dipole moment, in which the total dipole moment is canceled. The entanglement polarization,…
Collective coordinates provide a powerful tool for separating collective and elementary excitations, allowing both to be treated in the full quantum theory. The price is a canonical transformation which leads to a complicated starting point…
Magnetic solitons can constitute a means for manipulating qubits from a distance. This would overcome the necessity of directly applying selective magnetic fields, which is unfeasible in the case of a matrix of qubits embedded in a…
The bi-Hamiltonian structure is established for the perturbation equations of KdV hierarchy and thus the perturbation equations themselves provide also examples among typical soliton equations. Besides, a more general bi-Hamiltonian…
This paper starts by describing the dynamics of the electron-monopole system at both classical and quantum level by a suitable reduction procedure. This suggests, in order to realise the space of states for quantum systems which are…
A set of integral relations for rotational and translational zero modes in the vicinity of the soliton solution are derived from the particle-like properties of the latter and verified for a number of models (solitons in 1+1-dimensions,…
