We define a notion of stability for chiral ring of four dimensional N=1 theory by introducing test chiral rings and generalized a maximization. We conjecture that a chiral ring is the chiral ring of a superconformal field theory if and only…
Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of Q-balls, some of which can be entirely stable. Both stable and unstable Q-balls can play an important role in cosmology. In particular, Affleck-Dine baryogenesis can…
In theories with low energy supersymmetry breaking, the effective potential for squarks and sleptons has generically nearly flat directions, V(phi) ~ M^4 (log(phi/M))^n. This guarantees the existence of stable non-topological solitons,…
We discuss the quantization of an unstable field through the construction of a "one-particle Hilbert space." The system considered here is a neutral scalar field evolving over a globally hyperbolic static spacetime and subject to a…
Q-balls are generically present in models with softly broken low-energy supersymmetry. We discuss the properties of these non-topological solitons, which can precipitate a new kind of first-order phase transition in the early Universe and…
The K-condition introduced by Shizuta and Kawashima provides a sufficient criterion for the global existence of smooth solutions to dissipative hyperbolic systems. For genuinely nonlinear characteristic fields, a weaker K-condition becomes…
We obtain a new type of a stable Q ball in the context of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking in minimal supersymmetric standard model. It is so-called gravity-mediation type of Q ball, but stable against the decay into nucleons, since…
We study K-stability properties of a smooth Fano variety X using non-Archimedean geometry, specifically the Berkovich analytification of X with respect to the trivial absolute value on the ground field. More precisely, we view…
We analyse cosmological perturbations around a homogeneous and isotropic background for scalar-tensor, vector-tensor and bimetric theories of gravity. Building on previous results, we propose a unified view of the effective parameters of…
Quantum field theory provides a consistent framework to deal with unstable particles. We present here an approach based on field theory to describe the production and decay of unstable $K^0-\bar{K^0}$ and $B^0-\bar{B^0}$ mixed systems. The…
The main difficulties in constructing a viable early Universe bouncing model are: to bypass the observational and theoretical \emph{no-go} theorem, to construct a stable non-singular bouncing phase and perhaps, the major concern of it is to…
We consider the evolution of perturbed cosmological spacetime with multiple fluids and fields in Einstein gravity. Equations are presented in gauge-ready forms, and are presented in various forms using the curvature (\Phi or \phi_\chi) and…
A scalar field theory with a $\chi^\dag\chi\phi$ interaction is known to be unstable. Yet it has been used frequently without any sign of instability in standard text book examples and research articles. In order to reconcile these…
The kink stability of self-similar solutions of a massless scalar field with circular symmetry in 2+1 gravity is studied, and found that such solutions are unstable against the kink perturbations along the sonic line (self-similar horizon).…
A formulation of quantum electrodynamics is given that applies to atoms in a strong laser field by perturbation theory in a non-relativistic regime. Dipole approximation is assumed. The dual Dyson series, here discussed by referring it to…
Abelian non-topological solitons with Baryon and/or Lepton quantum numbers naturally appear in the spectrum of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. They arise as a consequence of the existence of flat directions in the potential…
The space-time of the Universe has been perturbed under a scalar field $\phi$ considering the minimum coupling between {\phi} and the background metric. The solutions of Einstein field equations have been obtained under perturbed geometry…
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for higher order weakly hyperbolic equations. We assume that the principal symbol depends only on one space variable and the characteristic roots $\tau_j$ verify the inequality \[\tau_j^2(x) +…
We derive quantum kinetic equations for scalar fields undergoing coherent evolution either in time (coherent particle production) or in space (quantum reflection). Our central finding is that in systems with certain space-time symmetries,…
We present numerical evidence for the existence of spinning generalizations for non-topological Q-ball solitons in the theory of a complex scalar field with a non-renormalizable self-interaction. To the best of our knowledge, this provides…
