相关论文: Lectures on (abelian) Chern-Simons vortices
Some properties of Chern-Simons terms are presented and their physical utility is surveyed.
Invited talk presented at the International Workshop on Hadron Structure '93, Bansk\'a \v Stiavnica, Slovakia, 5-10 September, 1993; to be published in the Proceedings.
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…
Talk presented at the 9th Max Born Symposion, Karpacz, September 1996
The problem of our understanding of the spin structure of the nucleon has been with us since the publication of the EMC measurements of the polarised structure function of the proton in 1987. In this talk a review of the results presented…
This talk summarises the discussions during the conference on the spin structure of the nucleon held at Erice; July 1995. The summary focuses on where we have come, where we are now, and the emerging questions that direct where we go next…
Recently delivered lectures on Self-Referential Mathematics, [2], at the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, University of Pretoria, are briefly presented. Comments follow on the subject, as well as on Inconsistent…
We perform a numerical study of the phase diagram of the model proposed in \cite{Shifman:2012vv}, which is a simple model containing non-Abelian vortices. As per the case of Abrikosov vortices, we map out a region of parameter space in…
This is a series of three lectures I gave at the Korea Institute of Advanced Study in June 2019 at a workshop about "Algebraic and Symplectic Aspects of Degenerations of Complex Surfaces". I focus on the symplectic aspects, in particular on…
We determine the unitary and anti-unitary Lagrangian and quantum symmetries of arbitrary abelian Chern-Simons theories. The symmetries depend sensitively on the arithmetic properties (e.g. prime factorization) of the matrix of Chern-Simons…
Summary and outlook presented at the 9th International Conference on the Structure of Baryons (BARYONS 2002), Jefferson Lab, March 3-8, 2002
These lecture notes for the 2013 CIME/CIRM summer school Combinatorial Algebraic Geometry deal with manifestly infinite-dimensional algebraic varieties with large symmetry groups. So large, in fact, that subvarieties stable under those…
Series of short contributions that are part of Nobel Symposium 162 - Microfluidics arXiv:1712.08369.
In the concluding session of the Joint International Conference titled Econophys-2017 and Asia Pacific Econophysics Conference (APEC)-2017, held in Jawaharlal Nehru University and Delhi University during November 15-18, 2017, a brief…
This is a survey article, based on the author's lectures in the 2015 AMS Summer Research Institute in Algebraic Geometry, and to appear in the Proceedings.
The Programme and Abstracts booklet of the sixth Conference on "Physics of Neutron Stars" held at the Ioffe Physical Technical Institute, St. Petersburg, Russia, on June 6 -- 8, 2001 is presented. The abstracts contain references to the web…
These lecture notes give an introduction to the Kahler-Ricci flow. They are based on lectures given by the authors at the conference "Analytic Aspects of Complex Algebraic Geometry", held at the Centre International de Rencontres…
These are notes of a series of lectures on sieves, presented during the Special Activity in Analytic Number Theory, at the Max-Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, during the period January--June 2002.
The dynamics of both global and local vortices with non-Abelian orientational moduli is investigated in detail. Head-on collisions of these vortices are numerically simulated for parallel, anti-parallel and orthogonal internal orientations…
We study complex Chern-Simons theory on a Seifert manifold $M_3$ by embedding it into string theory. We show that complex Chern-Simons theory on $M_3$ is equivalent to a topologically twisted supersymmetric theory and its partition function…
