We develop the dynamics of the chiral superconducting membranes (with null current) in an alternative geometric approach either making a Lagrangian description and a Hamiltonian point of view. Besides of this, we show the equivalence of the…
We suggest that clusters or domains of topological charge and action density occur in the QCD vacuum as an effect of singularities in gauge fields and can simultaneously lead to confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. The string constant,…
We point out that the moduli sector of the $(2,2)$ string compactification with its nonperturbatively preserved non-compact symmetries is a fertile framework to study global topological defects, thus providing a natural source for the large…
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…
A different lattice fermion method is introduced. Staggered domain wall fermions are defined in 2n+1 dimensions and describe 2^n flavors of light lattice fermions with exact U(1) x U(1) chiral symmetry in 2n dimensions. As the size of the…
Motivated by Grand Unification, we study the properties of domain walls formed in a model with $SU(5)\times Z_2$ symmetry which is spontaneously broken to $SU(3) \times SU(2) \times U(1)/Z_6$, and subsequently to $SU(3) \times U(1)/Z_3$.…
We investigate the interaction of fermion fields with oscillating domain walls, inspired by breather-type solutions of the sine-Gordon equation, a nonlinear system of fundamental importance. Our study focuses on the fermionic bound states…
The ground state of low-energy QCD matter in strong magnetic fields is either a chiral soliton lattice (CSL), a periodic array of neutral pion domain walls (chiral solitons) perpendicular to the magnetic field, or domain-wall Skyrmion…
We give a simple model to explain the origin of fermion families, and chirality through the use of a domain wall placed in a five dimensional space-time.
The Green-Schwarz action for an open superstring with additional boundary fermions, representing Chan-Paton factors, is studied at the classical level. The boundary geometry is described by a bundle, with fermionic fibres, over the super…
We study classical solutions of the vector O(3) sigma model in (2+1) dimensions, spontaneously broken to O(2)xZ2. The model possesses Skyrmion-type solutions as well as stable domain walls which connect different vacua. We show that…
We use the tensor network algorithm to show evidences of a non-uniform chiral spin-liquid (CSL) ground state in a frustrated spin-1/2 model on a square lattice, in the regime of moat-like band structure of the lattice, i.e., a band with…
We propose a nonperturbative gauge invariant regulator for d-dimensional chiral gauge theories on the lattice. The method involves simulating domain wall fermions in d + 1 dimensions with quantum gauge fields that reside on one…
We have obtained an exact solution for the BPS domain wall junction for a N=1 supersymmetric theory in four dimensions and studied its properties. The model is a simplified version of the N=2 SU(2) gauge theory with N_f=1 broken to N=1 by…
The purpose of this article is to explore the properties of integrable, purely transmitting, defects placed at the junctions of several one-dimensional domains within a network. The defect sewing conditions turn out to be quite restrictive…
We construct a model in which four dimensional chiral fermions arise on the boundaries of a five dimensional lattice with free boundary conditions in the fifth direction. The physical content is similar to Kaplan's model of domain wall…
We discuss how to construct anomaly-free chiral gauge theories on the lattice with exact gauge invariance in the framework of domain wall fermion. Chiral gauge coupling is realized by introducing a five-dimensional gauge field which…
Fermionic model of Superconformal field theory with boundary is considered. There were written the ''boundary'' Ward Identity for this theory and also constructed boundary states for fermionic and spin models. For this model were derived…
We show that in a magnetic nanowire with double magnetic domain walls, quantum interference results in spin-split quasistationary states localized mainly between the domain walls. Spin-flip-assisted transmission through the domain structure…
An alternative to commonly used domain wall fermions is presented. Some rigorous bounds on the condition number of the associated linear problem are derived. On the basis of these bounds and some experimentation it is argued that domain…
