We consider Maxwell-Chern-Simons models involving different non-minimal coupling terms to a non relativistic massive scalar and further coupled to an external uniform background charge. We study how these models can be constrained to…

In this paper, we investigate the general properties of lattice spin models that have string and/or membrane condensed ground states. We discuss the properties needed to define a string or membrane operator. We study three 3D spin models…

We study the zero-energy collision of three identical spin-polarized fermions with short-range interactions in one dimension. We derive the asymptotic expansions of the three-body wave function when the three fermions are far apart or one…

Inspired by the seminal, ground-breaking work of Abrikosov in 1957, we developed a new approximation to the interaction between two widely separated superconducting vortices. In contrast with Abrikosov's, we take into account the finite…

We prove that the vortex structures of solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations can change their topology without any loss of regularity. More precisely, we construct smooth high-frequency solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations where…

The spacial distribution of fields and currents in confining theories can give direct evidence of dual superconductivity. We would like to discuss the techniques for finding these properties and calculating the superconductivity parameters…

We explore simulations on periodic lattices in the Tomboulis $SO(3)\times Z(2)$ formulation. The dynamical variables are constrained. We propose an update algorithm that satisfies the constraints and is straightforward to implement. We show…

We consider a parity-preserving QED_3 model with spontaneous breaking of the gauge symmetry as a framework for the evaluation of the electron-electron interaction potential underlying high-T_c superconductivity. The fact that the resulting…

We study the configuration space of the Tomboulis $SO(3) \times Z(2)$ formulation with periodic boundary conditions. The dynamical variables are constrained by the required coincidence of Z(2) and SO(3) monopoles. We propose an update…

We demonstrate that frustrated exchange interactions can produce exotic 3D crystals of vortex strings near the saturation field (H=Hsat) of body- and face-centered cubic Mott insulators. The combination of cubic symmetry and frustration…

Static vortices close together are studied for two different models in 2-dimen- sional Euclidean space. In a simple model for one complex field an expansion in the parameters describing the relative position of two vortices can be given in…

In this work we consider an Abelian O(3) sigma model coupled nonminimally with a gauge field governed by a Maxwell and Chern-Simons terms. Bogomol'nyi equations are constructed for a specific form of the potential and generic nonminimal…

We propose an experiment for directly constructing and locally probing topologically entangled states of superconducting vortices which can be performed with present-day technology. Calculations using an elastic string vortex model indicate…

Interactions and reconnections of vortices are fundamental in many areas of physics, including classical and quantum fluids where they are central to understanding phenomena such as turbulence. In three-dimensional (3D) superfluids, quantum…

We study a variational Ginzburg-Landau type model depending on a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ for (tangent) vector fields on a $2$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $S$. As $\varepsilon\to 0$, these vector fields tend to have unit length…

Using an effective theory for an ensemble of center vortices, we observe the area law fall-off in the continuum limit for the SU($2$) gauge group in three-dimensional Euclidean space-time. The string tension is obtained in terms of the…

The potentials between static sources in various representaions in SU(3) are calculated based on the fat-center-vortices model of Faber, Greensite and Olejnik. At intermediate distances, most distributions of the flux within vortices lead…

We study vortex solutions in a holographic model of Herzog, Hartnoll, and Horowitz, with a vanishing external magnetic field on the boundary, as is appropriate for vortices in a superfluid. We study relevant length scales related to the…

We study a model for the pinning of vortices in a two-dimensional, inhomogeneous, Type-II superconductor in its mixed state. The model is based on a Ginzburg-Landau (GL) free energy functional whose coefficients are determined by the…

Interactions between non-BPS non-Abelian vortices are studied in non-Abelian U(1) x SU(N) extensions of the Abelian-Higgs model in four dimensions. The distinctive feature of a non-Abelian vortex is the presence of an internal CP^{N-1}…
