We produce examples of solutions to the non-abelian gravitating vortex equations, which are a dimensional reduction of the K\"aher-Yang-Mills- Higgs equations. These are equations for a K\"ahler metric and a metric on a vector bundle. We…

In this paper we establish the existence of vortex solutions for a Chern--Simons--Higgs model with gauge group $SU(N) \times U(1)$ and flavor SU(N), these symmetries ensuring the existence of genuine non-Abelian vortices through a…

I point out how coherence vortices, i.e., topological defects in a correlation function, could help explore new physics if they are created in matter waves. Vortex dynamics could be studied in up to six dimensions, and spin topological…

This is a version (less professional editing, more details and jokes) of an APS Physics Viewpoint about three recent papers extending charge-vortex duality to fermionic vortices.

We present a discussion of embedded vortices in general Yang-Mills theories. The origin of a family structure of solutions is shown to be group theoretic in nature and a procedure for its determination is developed. Vortex stability can be…

We introduce and investigate new models of the Chern-Simons type in the three-dimensional spacetime, focusing on the existence of compact vortices. The models are controlled by potentials driven by a single real parameter that can be used…

Notes from a talk at the April 2011 ICMS (Edinburgh) conference on the recent solution of the Kervaire invariant problem. This is an entirely expository account, emphasizing connections with the theory of topological automorphic forms.

These lecture notes are based on a course given at Institut de Physique Th\'eorique of CEA/Saclay in January/February 2013.

Non-Abelian vortices for a supersymmetric {\cal N}=2 Chern-Simons-Higgs theory are explicitly constructed. We introduce N Higgs fields in the fundamental representation of the U(N) gauge group in order to have a color-flavor SU(N) group…

We consider the possibility of localizing gravity on a Nielsen-Olesen vortex in the context of the Abelian Higgs model. The vortex lives in a six-dimensional space-time with negative bulk cosmological constant. In this model we find a…

Notes of an introductory course given at the conference "Torsors: Theory and Applications" in Edinburgh, January 2011.

These notes accompany an introductory lecture course on the twistor approach to supersymmetric gauge theories aimed at early-stage PhD students. It was held by the author at the University of Cambridge during the Michaelmas term in 2009.…

The subject of these summer school lectures are (i) Chiral symmetry; (ii) Anomalies; (iii) Domain wall fermions; (iv) Overlap fermions and the Ginsparg-Wilson equation

The recent results on hadron multiplicities in heavy and light quark fragmentation, multiplicity local fluctuations and multiparticle correlations submitted to the Conference are reviewed.

This note was written for the proceedings of the conference "Symplectic Geometry and Anosov Flows" held in Heideleberg in July 2024. It is meant as an invitation to the study of certain families of contact structures, centering around the…

This contribution contains a summary of the Krakow meeting on Soft Physics and Fluctuations. It emphasizes both the experimental and the theoretical investigations on correlations/fluctuations and intermittency in multi-particle processes…

Lecture notes on selected topics in the theory of gravitation.

This paper extends a number of known results on slope-semistable sheaves from the classical case to the setting where polarisations are given by movable curve classes. As applications, we obtain new flatness results for reflexive sheaves on…

This executive summary of recent theory progress in Compton scattering off 3He focuses on determining neutron polarisabilities; see ref. [2] and references therein for details and a better bibliography. Prepared for the Proceedings of the…

Brief review of the recent progress in semiconductor spintronics (theory and experiment) and the current theoretical problems in it is presented. Invited paper at the 2006 Advanced Research Workshop "Future Trends in Microelectronics: Up to…
