We study magnon modes in the presence of a vortex in a circular easy-plane ferromagnet. The problem of vortex-magnon scattering is investigated for partial modes with different values of the azimuthal quantum number m over a wide range of…
There exists a class of gauge models incorporating a finite density of matter in which the Higgs mechanism is provided by condensates of gauge (or gauge and scalar) fields, i.e., there are vector condensates in this case. We describe vortex…
In this paper we review some aspects of the scattering Aharonov-Bohm effect and Berry's phase. Specifically, the problem of scattering of free 2d electrons on the system of an arbitrary number of parallel, infinitely thin and infinitely…
The scattering problem under the influence of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) potential is reconsidered. By solving the Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation we obtain the wave function of the scattering state in this system. In spite of working with a…
We asymptotically estimate the variance of the number of lattice points in a thin, randomly rotated annulus lying on the surface of the sphere. This partially resolves a conjecture of Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak. We also obtain estimates…

In this paper we study the interaction of Gaussian solitons in a dispersive and nonlinear media with log-law nonlinearity. The model is described by the coupled logarithmic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations, which is a nonintegrable system…
By imposing self-duality conditions, we obtain the explicit form in which gauge theories spontaneously breakdown in the Bogomol'nyi limit. In this context, we reconsider the Abelian Higgs, Chern-Simons Higgs and Maxwell-Chern-Simons Higgs…
We study the magnon spectrum in a thin ferromagnetic-superconductor heterostructure in the presence of a single superconducting vortex. We employ the Bogolubov-de Gennes Hamiltonian which describes the magnons in the presence of the stray…
The metric on the moduli space of one abelian Higgs vortex on a surface has a natural geometrical evolution as the Bradlow parameter, which determines the vortex size, varies. It is shown by various arguments, and by calculations in special…
We study the non-Abelian topological vortices in condensed matter physics, whose topological flux quantum number is described by $\pi_2(S^2)$, not by $\pi_1(S^1)$. We present two examples, a magnetic vortex in two-gap superconductor and a…
The Aharonov-Bohm-Coulomb potentials in two dimensions may describe the interaction between two particles carrying electric charge and magnetic flux, say, Chern--Simons solitons, or so called anyons. The scattering problem for such two-body…
Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) has been widely used as monochromators, analyzers and filters at neutron and X-ray scattering facilities. In this Letter we report the first observation of an anomalous neutron Halo scattering of…
The scattering of spin-polarized electrons in an Aharonov--Bohm vector potential is considered. We solve the Pauli equation in 3+1 dimensions taking into account explicitly the interaction between the three-dimensional spin magnetic moment…
The Aharonov--Bohm effect is considered as a scattering event with nonrelativistic charged particles of the wavelength which is less than the transverse size of an impenetrable magnetic vortex. The quasiclassical WKB method is shown to be…
We consider non-scattering energies and transmission eigenvalues of compactly supported potentials in the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb H^n$. We prove that in $\mathbb H^2$ a corner bounded by two hyperbolic lines intersecting at an angle…

Head-on collisions between two solitons in the pure $CP^1$ model on a flat torus are investigated via numerical simulations. The charge-two lumps, written out in terms of Weierstrass' elliptic $\wp$-function, are found to scatter at…
We consider "double-winding" Wilson loops in SU(2) gauge theory. These are contours which wind once around a loop $C_1$ and once around a loop $C_2$, where the two co-planar loops share one point in common, and where $C_1$ lies entirely in…
