We consider a new momentum cut-off scheme for sums over zero-point energies, containing an arbitrary function f(k) which interpolates smoothly between the zero-point energies of the modes around the kink and those in flat space. A term…
We study the supersymmetric kink with higher derivative and momentum cut-off regularization schemes. We introduce the new momentum cut-off regularization scheme which we call ``generalized momentum cut-off''. A new, explicit computation for…
We present an explicit calculation of the one-loop quantum corrections to the mass and the two central charges of the kink solution of an N=(2,2) supersymmetric CP^1 model with twisted mass, using supersymmetry preserving dimensional…
We first discuss how the longstanding confusion in the literature concerning one-loop quantum corrections to 1+1 dimensional solitons has finally been resolved. Then we use 't Hooft and Veltman's dimensional regularization to compute the…
We review our work of the past decade on one-loop quantum corrections to the mass M and central charge Z of solitons in supersymmetric field theories: the kink, the vortex, and the monopoles (focussing on the kink and the monopoles here).…
We calculate the one-loop corrections to the mass and central charge of the BPS monopole in N=2 super-Yang-Mills theory in 3+1 dimensions using a supersymmetry-preserving version of dimensional regularization adapted to solitons. In the…
We discuss the one-loop quantum corrections to the mass M and central charge Z of supersymmetric solitons: the kink, the vortex and the monopole. Contrary to previous expectations and published results, in each of these cases there are…
We show that the anomalous contribution to the central charge of the 1+1-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric kink that is required for BPS saturation at the quantum level can be linked to an analogous term in the extra momentum operator of a…
We calculate the one-loop quantum corrections to the mass and central charge of N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric monopoles in 3+1 dimensions. The corrections to the N=2 central charge are finite and due to an anomaly in the conformal central…
We compute second-order quantum corrections, as quantum dispersions and correlations, to a cosmological model coupling a single scalar perturbation mode to a bouncing background within Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). Using an effective…
We use the generalized zeta function regularization method to compute the one-loop quantum correction to the masses of the TK1 and TK2 kinks in a deformation of the O(N) linear sigma model on the real line.
We reanalyse the question whether the quantum Bogomolnyi bound is saturated in the two-dimensional supersymmetric kink and sine-Gordon models. Our starting point is the usual expression for the one-loop correction to the mass of a soliton…
We review some recent developments in the subject of quantum corrections to soliton mass and central charge. We consider in particular approaches which use local densities for these corrections, as first discussed by Hidenaga Yamagishi. We…
In this paper we compute the radiative correction to the mass of the kink in $\phi^4$ theory in 1+1 dimensions, using an alternative renormalization program. In this newly proposed renormalization program the breaking of the translational…
We compute the quantum correction to the mass of the kink at the one-loop level in (1+1) dimensions with minimal supersymmetry. In this paper we discuss this issue from the Casimir energy perspective using phase shifts along with the mode…
We present an analytic result for the 1-loop quantum mass correction in semiclassical quantization for the twisted \phi^4 kink on S^1 without explicit knowledge of the fluctuation spectrum. For this purpose we use the contour integral…
A method for describing the quantum kink states in the semi-classical limit of several (1+1)-dimensional field theoretical models is developed. We use the generalized zeta function regularization method to compute the one-loop quantum…
We discuss the concepts and the framework of the renormalization procedure in regularization-invariant momentum subtraction schemes. These schemes are used in the context of lattice simulations for the determination of physical quantities…
Quantum corrections to the magnetic central charge of the monopole in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are free from the anomalous contributions that were crucial for BPS saturation of the two-dimensional supersymmetric kink and the N=2…
To obtain the one-loop corrections to the mass of a kink by mode regularization, one may take one-half the result for the mass of a widely separated kink-antikink (or sphaleron) system, where the two bosonic zero modes count as two degrees…
