We present numerical simulations of fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate in two spatial dimensions. We argue analytically that the final state should consist of both Q-balls and anti-Q-balls in a state of maximum entropy, with most…

U(1) gauge theory of non-relativistic fermions interacting via compact U(1) gauge fields in the presence of a Fermi surface appears as an effective field theory in low dimensional quantum antiferromagnetism and heavy fermion liquids. We…

There may exist extended configurations in the dark matter sector that are analogues of structures in the visible sector. In this work, we explore non-topological solitonic configurations, specifically Q-balls, and study when they may form…

We perform a general analysis of thin-wall Q-balls in AdS space. We provide numeric solutions and highly accurate analytic approximations over much of the parameter space. These analytic solutions show that AdS Q-balls exhibit significant…

We measure Coulomb-gauge wavefunctions of the scalar and tensor glueballs in SU(2) Yang-Mills. The problem of contamination by flux states is discussed, and a new analysis method described. The large size of the tensor glueball is…

A type of scenario is considered where electrically charged vacuum bubbles, formed from degenerate or nearly degenerate vacuua separated by a thin domain wall, are cosmologically produced due to the breaking of a discrete symmetry, with the…

We have stumbled upon a remarkable empirical feature of central meson production which separates established $q\bar{q}$ mesons from glueball candidates. This does not appear to have been noted previously and we have no simple explanation…

The compact U(1) gauge field occurs in many fractionalized descriptions of low dimensional quantum magnetism and heavy fermion systems. In this respect a fundamental question about the gauge field is whether it is confined or not in the…

Coherently oscillating scalar condensates formed along flat directions of the MSSM scalar potential are unstable with respect to spatial perturbations if the potential is flatter than phi^2, resulting in the formation of non-topological…

Q-balls are non-topological solitons that coherently rotate in field space. We show that these coherent rotations can induce superradiance for scattering waves, thanks to the fact that the scattering involves two coupled modes. Despite the…

For scalar theories accommodating spherically symmetric Q-balls, there are also towers of quasi-stable composite Q-balls, called charge swapping Q-balls (CSQs). We investigate the properties, particularly the lifetimes, of these long-lived…

We study large N SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in three and four dimensions using a one-parameter family of supergravity models which originate from non-extremal rotating D-branes. We show explicitly that varying this "angular momentum" parameter…

We study the detectability of the gravitational waves (GWs) from the Q-ball formation associated with the Affleck-Dine (AD) mechanism, taking into account both of the dilution effect due to Q-ball domination and of finite temperature…

In supersymmetric generalizations of the Standard Model, all stable Q-balls are associated with some flat directions. We show that, if the flat direction has both the baryon number and the lepton number, the scalar field inside the Q-ball…

In many supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model the spectrum of states contains stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls. If formed in the Early Universe in sufficient amounts, Q-balls now contribute to cold dark matter. We discuss…

We analyze in detail the interactions between non-topological soliton (Q-ball) and its perturbations. We extend the previous literature by carefully identifying the domain of applicability of linear analysis as well discussion of the FLS…

We consider a massive fermion interacting with a U(1) gauge field in the limit of a large coupling constant. It is found that the current has a generalized London term that can originate massive excitations for two of the three components…

Compact U(1) lattice gauge theory in four dimensions is studied by means of an efficient algorithm which exploits the duality transformation properties of the model. We focus our attention onto the confining regime, considering the…

We consider a scalar field model with a self-interaction potential that possesses a discrete vacuum manifold. We point out that this model allows for both topological as well as non-topological solitons. In (1+1) dimensions both type of…

Q-balls formed from the Affleck-Dine field have rich cosmological implications and have been extensively studied from both theoretical and simulational approaches. From the theoretical point of view, the exact solution of the Q-ball was…
