Magnetic fields are generated in ionized objects rotating with respect to a radiation background. Based on conservation of canonical ion momentum, it has been previously suggested that even if the radiation intensity is unrestricted the…
We consider soliton creation when there are "twist" degrees of freedom present in the model in addition to those that make up the soliton. Specifically we consider a deformed O(3) sigma model in 1+1 dimensions, which reduces to the…
The longitudinal dynamics of a resonantly driven Langmuir wave are analyzed in the limit that the growth of the electrostatic wave is slow compared to the bounce frequency. Using simple physical arguments, the nonlinear distribution…
The dynamical evolution of internal space-like dimensions breaks the invariance of the Maxwell's equations under Weyl rescaling of the (conformally flat) four-dimensional metric. Depending upon the number and upon the dynamics of internal…
Symmetric mass generation is the name given to a mechanism for gapping fermions while preserving a chiral, but necessarily non-anomalous, symmetry. In this paper we describe how symmetric mass generation for continuous symmetries can be…
Upper bounds are derived on the amount of magnetic energy that can be generated by dynamo action in collisional and collisionless plasmas with and without external forcing. A hierarchy of mathematical descriptions is considered for the…
The linear $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R$ sigma-model occupies a unique place in elementary particle physics and quantum field theory. It has been recently realized that when a chemical potential for hypercharge is added, it becomes a toy model…
This article studies large $N$ limits of a coupled system of $N$ interacting $\Phi^4$ equations posed over $\mathbb{T}^{d}$ for $d=2$, known as the $O(N)$ linear sigma model. Uniform in $N$ bounds on the dynamics are established, allowing…
Yields of Delta(1230), Sigma(1385) resonances produced in heavy ion collisions are studied within the framework of a kinetic master equation. The time evolution is driven by the process Delta(1230) \leftrightarrow N \pi, Sigma(1385)…
Naively, helicity flip amplitudes for fermions seem to vanish in the chiral limit of light-front QCD, which would make it nearly impossible to generate a small pion mass in this framework. Using a simple model, it is illustrated how a large…
In this talk we review our recent developments on the understanding of the nature of the f_0(500) resonance---or sigma meson---coming from the N_c expansion, dispersion relations with Chiral Perturbation Theory, as well as finite energy sum…
A new mechanism for mass generation of gauge fields is proposed in this paper. By introducing two sets of gauge fields and making the variatons of these two sets of gauge fields compensate each other under local gauge transformations, the…
Oscillons are localized field configurations oscillating in time with lifetimes orders of magnitude longer than their oscillation period. In this paper, we simulate non-travelling oscillons produced by deforming the breather solutions of…
Divergence-free symmetric tensors seem ubiquitous in Mathematical Physics. We show that this structure occurs in models that are described by the so-called "second" variational principle, where the argument of the Lagrangian is a closed…
One type of dynamical generation consists in the formation of multiple hadronic resonances from single seed states by incorporating hadronic loop contributions on the level of $s$-wave propagators. Along this line, we study the propagator…
We point out that a model with scalar fields with a large nonminimal coupling to the Ricci scalar, such as Higgs inflation, can be regarded as a nonlinear sigma model (NLSM). With the inclusion of not only the scalar fields but also the…
Based on the Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation, the fermion mass generation is further studied in the D(2<D<4)-dimensional Thirring model as a gauge theory previously proposed. By using a certain approximation to the kernel, we analytically…
Dependent symmetries, symmetries that depend on the situation of the subsystem in a larger closed system, are explored by looking at simple examples. This is a new kind of symmetry in the open quantum dynamics of a subsystem Each symmetry…
We show that if a discrete quantum gravity is not classical, then it cannot be generated by an isometric dynamics. In particular, we show that if the quantum measure {\mu} (or equivalently the decoherence functional) is generated by an…
Kinetically constrained spin systems play an important role in understanding key properties of the dynamics of slowly relaxing materials, such as glasses. So far kinetic constraints have been introduced in idealised models aiming to capture…
