We consider multiplet shortening for BPS solitons in N=1 two-dimensional models. Examples of the single-state multiplets were established previously in N=1 Landau-Ginzburg models. The shortening comes at a price of loosing the fermion…
We investigate the low-energy dynamics of the BPS solitons of the noncommutative CP^1 model in 2+1 dimensions using the moduli space metric of the BPS solitons. We show that the dynamics of a single soliton coincides with that in the…
Superconformal `type B' quantum mechanical sigma models arise in a variety of interesting contexts, such as the description of D-brane bound states in an AdS$_2$ decoupling limit. Focusing on $N=2B$ models, we study superconformal indices…
We study the spatial structure of 1/4 BPS solitons in 4 dimensional N=4 gauge theory. A weak binding approximation is used where the soliton is made of several "ingredient" particles. Some spatial moduli are described which are not…
We study soliton solutions in 1+1 dimensional gauged sigma models, obtained by dimensional reduction from its 2+1 dimensional counterparts. We show that the Bogomol'nyi bound of these models can be expressed in terms of two conserved…
In theories with $N=2$ supersymmetry on $R^{3,1}$, BPS bound states can decay across walls of marginal stability in the space of Coulomb branch parameters, leading to discontinuities in the BPS indices $\Omega(\gamma,u)$. We consider a…
Vector spaces of (framed) BPS states of Lagrangian four-dimensional N=2 field theories can be defined in semiclassical chambers in terms of the $L^2$-cohomology of Dirac-like operators on monopole moduli spaces. This was spelled out…
We perform the dimensional reduction of the nonrelativistic CP(1) model coupled to an Abelian Chern-Simons gauge field in the self-dual limit, and investigate the soliton and domain wall solutions of the emerging 1+1 dimensional self-dual…
We consider the Lorentz contraction of a fermion-antifermion bound state in 1+1 dimensional QED. In 1+1 dimensions the absence of physical, propagating photons allows us to explicitly solve the weak coupling limit \alpha << m^2 of the…
We propose a novel and simple method of computing the volume of the moduli space of BPS solitons in supersymmetric gauge theory. We use a D-brane realization of vortices and T-duality relation to domain walls. We there use a special limit…
The general objective of the work is to study dynamics of dissipative solitons in the framework of a one-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE) of a fractional order. To estimate the shape of solitons in fractional models, we…
Possible short and semi-short representations for $\N=2$ and $\N=4$ superconformal symmetry in four dimensions are discussed. For $\N=4$ the well known short supermultiplets whose lowest dimension conformal primary operators correspond to…
Planck scale lepton number violation is an interesting and natural possibility to explain non-zero neutrino masses. We consider such operators in the context of Randall-Sundrum (RS1) scenarios. Implementation of this scenario with a single…
We consider the spectrum of BPS saturated states in $N = 2$ gauge theories in four dimensions. This spectrum may be discontinuous across real codimension one submanifolds of marginal stability in the moduli space of vacua. An example, which…
It is shown that the mean-field description of a boson-fermion mixture with a dominating fermionic component, loaded in a one-dimensional optical lattice, is reduced to the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation with a periodic potential and…
Generalized Wess-Zumino models which admit topologically non-trivial BPS saturated configurations along one compact, spatial dimension are investigated in various dimensions of space-time. We show that, in a representative model and for…
We consider the fermionic bound states associated with a soliton-antisoliton pair in 1+1 dimensions which have zero energy when the solitons are infinitely far apart. We calculate the energies of these states when the solitons are separated…
We discuss the restructuring of the BPS spectrum which occurs on certain submanifolds of the moduli/parameter space -- the curves of the marginal stability (CMS) -- using quasiclassical methods. We argue that in general a `composite' BPS…
We consider $N=1$ supergravity coupled to a Wess-Zumino multiplet with a potential such that the resulting AdS energies saturate the unitarity and Breitenlohner-Freedman bounds, respectively. Imposing regular boundary conditions that…
Three generation heterotic-string vacua in the free fermionic formulation gave rise to models with solely the MSSM states in the observable Standard Model charged sector. The relation of these models to Z_2 x Z_2 orbifold compactifications…
