This paper gives a pedestrian presentation of some technical results recently published in mathematical physics with non-trivial implications for laser-plasma interaction. The aim is to get across the main results without going into the…
We calculate instanton corrections to three dimensional gauge theories with N=4 and N=8 supersymmetry and SU(n) gauge groups. The N=4 results give new information about the moduli space of n BPS SU(2) monopoles, including the leading order…
Numerical approaches to Anderson localization face the problem of having to treat large localization lengths while being restricted to finite system sizes. We show that by finite-size scaling of the probability distribution of the local…
Instanton theory has arisen as a practical tool for calculating tunneling splittings in molecular systems. Unfortunately, the original formulation of instanton theory fundamentally breaks down when trying to calculate the level splitting in…
The conventional duality analysis is employed to identify a location of a critical point on a uniform lattice without any disorder in its structure. In the present study, we deal with the random planar lattice, which consists of the…
We present a series of instanton-like solutions to a matrix model which satisfy a self-duality condition and possess an action whose value is, to within a fixed constant factor, an integer l^2. For small values of the dimension n^2 of the…
We present results of an investigation into the nature of instantons in 4-dimensional pure gauge lattice $SU(2)$\ obtained from configurations which have been cooled using an under-relaxed cooling algorithm. We discuss ways of calibrating…
In change-point analysis, one aims at finding the locations of abrupt distributional changes (if any) in a sequence of multivariate observations. In this article, we propose some nonparametric methods based on averages of pairwise distances…
We construct an asymptotic approximation to the solution of a transmission problem for a body containing a region occupied by many small inclusions. The cluster of inclusions is characterised by two small parameters that determine the…
We derive a general formula for the correlation function of two identical particles with the inclusion of multiple elastic scatterings in the medium in which the two particles are produced. This formula involves the propagator of the…
In the two-dimensional CP(N-1) model one can parametrize exact many-instanton solutions via N `constituents' (called `zindons'). This parameterization allows, in principle, a complete `melting' of individual instantons. The model is…
We consider aspects of instanton dynamics in the large-N limit using the AdS/CFT duality for D0/D4 bound states. In the supergravity picture of wrapped D0-brane world-lines on D4-branes, we find the single-instanton measure and discuss its…
The propagation of an interacting particle pair in a disordered chain is characterized by a set of localization lengths which we define. The localization lengths are computed by a new decimation algorithm and provide a more comprehensive…
We extend the worldline instanton technique to compute the vacuum pair production rate for spatially inhomogeneous electric background fields, with the spatial inhomogeneity being genuinely two or three dimensional, both for the magnitude…
Instantons are tunneling solutions that connect two vacua, and under a small change in the potential, instantons sometimes disappear. We classify these disappearances as smooth (decay rate goes to 0 at disappearance) or abrupt (decay rate…
Throughout this paper, we comprehensively study instantons with every kind of continuous conformal symmetry. Examples of these objects are hard to come by due to non-linear constraints. However, by applying previous work on moduli spaces,…
The Landau distribution as well as its first and second momenta are well suited for describing the energy loss of charged particles traversing a thin layer of matter. At present, just rational approximations and asymptotic expressions for…
The validity of the instanton analysis approach is tested numerically in the case of the diffraction-amplification problem $\partial_z\psi -\frac{i}{2m}\partial^2_{x^2} \psi =g\vert S\vert^2\, \psi$ for $\ln U\gg 1$, where…
Instanton theory is an established method to calculate rate constants of chemical reactions including atom tunneling. Technical and methodological improvements increased its applicability. Still, a large number of energy and gradient…
We study non-perturbative aspects of the large N duality between Chern-Simons theory and topological strings, and we find a rich structure of large N phase transitions in the complex plane of the 't Hooft parameter. These transitions are…
