Based on the U(1) gauge potential decomposition theory and $\phi$-mapping theory, the topological inner structure of the self-duality (Bogomol'nyi-type) equations are studied. The special form of the gauge potential decomposition is…
We present a new supersymmetric version of the SU(3) otimes U(1) gauge model using a more economic content of particles. The model has a smaller set of free parameters than other possibilities considered before. The MSSM can be seen as an…

The critical values for the mass of the Higgs bosons, at which the theory becomes strongly interacting, are calculated using the equivalence theorem, at high energies this allows us to replace the longitudinally polarized gauge bosons in…
The analysis of $90^{\circ}$ vortex-vortex scattering is extended to $\frac{\pi}{n}$ scattering in all head-on collisions of $n$ vortices in the Abelian Higgs model. A Cauchy problem with initial data that describe the scattering of $n$…
We investigate the vortex lattice solution in a (2+1)-dimensional holographic model of superconductors constructed from a charged scalar condensate. The solution is obtained perturbatively near the second-order phase transition and is a…
A new algorithm for fixing the gauge to (direct) maximal center gauge in SU(N) lattice gauge theory is presented. We check how this method works on SU(3) configurations which are vortex-like, and show how these configurations look like when…
In this work we study a nonlinear gauged O(3)-sigma model with both minimal and nonminimal coupling in the covariant derivative. Using an asymmetric scalar potential, the model is found to exhibit both topological and non-topological…
An explicit formula for the interaction energy of $n$ vortices in the abelian Higgs (or Ginzburg-Landau) model is derived, valid in the regime where all vortices are close to one another. An immediate consequence of this formula is that the…
In this paper we study the existence of multiple solutions for the non-Abelian Chern--Simons--Higgs $(N\times N)$-system: \[ \Delta u_i=\lambda\left(\sum_{j=1}^N\sum_{k=1}^N K_{kj}K_{ji}\re^{u_j}\re^{u_k}-\sum_{j=1}^N…
Thermally reduced QCD leads to three dimensional SU(3) gaugefields coupled to an adjoint scalar field $A_0$. We compute the effective potential in the one-loop approximation and evaluate the VEV's of $TrA_0^2$ and $TrA_0^3$. In the Higgs…
We consider nonlinear gauged sigma-models with Kahler domain and target. For a special choice of potential these models admit Bogomolny (or self-duality) equations -- the so-called vortex equations. We find the moduli space and energy…
We consider the noncommutative Abelian-Higgs theory and investigate general static vortex configurations including recently found exact multi-vortex solutions. In particular, we prove that the self-dual BPS solutions cease to exist once the…
The bosonization and duality rules in three-dimensions are applied to analyze some features of superfluids and superconductors. The energy of an ensemble of vortices in a superfluid is recovered by means of a kind of bound which, to some…
We study monopoles and vortices in SU(2) lattice gauge theory on a 24**4 lattice at beta=2.50. We find a value of fundamental string tension from monopoles in the maximum Abelian gauge consistent with the full SU(2) value. Using direct and…
By gauging a higher-moment polynomial degree global symmetry and a discrete charge conjugation (i.e., particle-hole) symmetry coupled to matter fields (two symmetries mutually non-commutative), we derive a new class of higher-rank tensor…
In the London limit of the Ginzburg-Landau theory (Abelian Higgs model), vortex dipoles (small vortex loops) are treated as a grand canonical ensemble in the dilute gas approximation. The summation over these objects with the most general…
We use a shadowing-type lemma in order to analyze the singular, semilinear elliptic equation describing static self-dual abelian Higgs vortices. Such an approach allows us to construct new solutions having an \textit{infinite} number of…
We study the asymptotic behavior of finite energy $\rm{SU}(2)$ monopoles, and general critical points of the $\rm{SU}(2)$ Yang--Mills--Higgs energy, on asymptotically conical $3$-manifolds with only one end. Our main results generalize…
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…
