We study a SU(2) gauge theory with a classical complex modulus. Introducing a chemical potential for a conserved modulus hypercharge causes it to become unstable and start condensing. We show that the modulus condensation in turn generates…

We study the stability and bifurcation of relative equilibria of a particle on the Lie group $SO(3)$ whose motion is governed by an $SO(3)\times SO(2)$ invariant metric and an $SO(2)\times SO(2)$ invariant potential. Our method is to reduce…

The analysis of the extremal structure of the scalar potentials of gauged maximally extended supergravity models in five, four, and three dimensions, and hence the determination of possible vacuum states of these models is a computationally…

Abelian non-topological solitons with Baryon and/or Lepton quantum numbers naturally appear in the spectrum of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. They arise as a consequence of the existence of flat directions in the potential…

We look at vacuum solutions for fields confined in cavities where the boundary conditions can rule out constant field configurations, other than the zero field. If the zero field is unstable, symmetry breaking can occur to a field…

Boundedness is an important property of many physical systems. This includes incompressible fluid flows, which are often modeled by quadratic dynamics with an energy-preserving nonlinearity. For such systems, Schlegel and Noack proposed a…

A review of the current status of nucleon stability in SUSY unified models is given. The review includes analysis of nucleon stability in the minimal SU(5) supergravity model, and in extensions of the minimal model such as SO(10) models,…

We investigate supersymmetric QCD with gauge group SU(2) and a baryon deformation to the superpotential. The existence of an uplifted vacuum at the origin with tree level metastability is demonstrated. When this model is implemented in a…

Based on the general principles of Lorentz symmetry and unitary, we introduce two consistency conditions -- on-shell gauge symmetry and strong massive-massless continuation -- in constructing amplitudes of massive gauge theory with…

We investigate gauge-invariant nonlinear electrodynamics in the Pleba\'nski first-order Hamiltonian formulation, taking the single-invariant potential $\hat V(P)$ as the primary object. Our focus is on the existence of stable…

We consider the quantisation of scalar fields on a Lifshitz background, exploring the possibility of alternative boundary conditions, allowing the slow falloff mode to fluctuate. We show that the scalar field with alternative boundary…

In a previous paper [JCAP06, 033 (2018)] we have proved that it is possible to have a stable false vacuum in a potential that is unbounded from below. In this paper we discuss the Physics related to our theoretical and numerical results. We…

In the context of $\mathrm{E}_{6}$ Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), an intriguing possibility for symmetry breaking to the Standard Model (SM) group involves an intermediate stage characterized by either…

We consider a bound state problem for a family of supersymmetric gauge theories with fundamental matter. These theories can be obtained by a dimensional reduction of supersymmetric QCD from three dimensions to 1+1 and subsequent truncation…

An electroweak model of SU(3) $\times$ U(1) gauge group is studied. {}From the group theoretical constraint, the symmetry breaking of this model to the standard model occurs at 1.7~TeV or lower. Hence the mass of the new neutral gauge boson…

We study the scalar mass matrix of general supersymmetric theories with local gauge symmetries, and derive an absolute upper bound on the lightest scalar mass. This bound can be saturated by suitably tuning the superpotential, and its…

For SU(2) lattice gauge theory, a new SO(3) cooling procedure is proposed which removes the SU(2)/Z(2) coset fields from the lattice configurations and reveals a Z(2) vortex vacuum texture different from the P-vortex content obtained in the…

We calculate an $s$-wave amplitude matrix for all the possible 2--to--2 body scalar boson elastic scatterings in models with three scalar doublets, including contributions from the longitudinal component of weak gauge bosons via the…

We analyze the static potentials for various representations in SU($3$) Yang-Mills theory within the framework of the domain model of center vortices. The influence of vortex interactions is investigated on the static potentials. We show…

The SU(2) invariant massive Thirring model with a boundary is considered on the basis of the vertex operator approach. The bosonic formulae are presented for the vacuum vector and its dual in the presence of the boundary. The integral…
