We elaborate a theory of giant vortices [1] based on an asymptotic expansion in inverse powers of their winding number $n$. The theory is applied to the analysis of vortex solutions in the abelian Higgs (Ginzburg-Landau) model. Specific…

We construct an extension of the Abelian Higgs model, which consists of a complex scalar field by including an additional real, electromagnetically neutral scalar field. We couple this real scalar field to the complex scalar field via a…

The well-known idea to construct domain wall type solutions of field equations by means of an expansion in the width of the domain wall is reexamined. We observe that the problem involves singular perturbations. Hilbert-Chapman-Enskog…

We consider the vortex equations for a U(n) gauge field coupled to a Higgs field with values on the n times n square matrices. It is known that when these equations are defined on a compact Riemann surface, their moduli space of solutions…

We construct, for the first time, Abelian-Higgs vortices on certain compact surfaces of constant negative curvature. Such surfaces are represented by a tessellation of the hyperbolic plane by regular polygons. The Higgs field is given…

The Abelian Higgs model with or without external particles is considered in curved space. Using the dual transformation, we rewrite the model in terms of dual gauge fields and derive the Bogomol'nyi-type bound. We examine cylindrically…

Zero modes of rotationally symmetric vortices in a hierarchy of generalized Abelian Higgs models are studied. Under the finite-energy and the smoothness condition, it is shown, that in all models, $n$ self-dual vortices superimposed at the…

Vortices represent a class of topological solitons arising in gauge theories coupled with complex scalar fields, holding significant importance across various domains of modern physics. In this paper we establish the existence of vortex…

We consider the possibility of localizing gravity on a Nielsen-Olesen vortex in the context of the Abelian Higgs model. The vortex lives in a six-dimensional space-time with negative bulk cosmological constant. In this model we find a…

It has been shown recently that the motion of solitons at couplings around a critical coupling can be reduced to the dynamics of particles (the zeros of the Higgs field) on a curved manifold with potential. The curvature gives a velocity…

We study an axially symmetric solution of a vortex in the Abelian-Higgs model at critical coupling in detail. Here we propose a new idea for a perturbative expansion of a solution, where the winding number of a vortex is naturally extended…

We find topological defect solutions to the equations of motion of a generalised Higgs model with antisymmetric tensor fields. These solutions are direct higher dimensional analogues of the Nielsen-Olesen vortex solution for a gauge field…

The static vortex solution in Abelian Higgs model with small ratio of vector and Higgs particle masses is considered. Several formulae approximating this solution are discussed. The accuracy of these approximations is tested by numerical…

It is shown that both the sinh--Gordon equation and the elliptic Tzitzeica equation can be interpreted as the Taubes equation for Abelian vortices on a CMC surface embedded in $\R^{2, 1}$, or on a surface conformally related to a hyperbolic…

In this paper zero modes of fluctuation are dissected around the two species of BPS vortices existing in the critical Higgs phase, where the scalar and vector meson masses are equal, of a gauged $\mathbb{U}(1)$ nonlinear…

We consider the classical equations of the gravitating Abelian-Higgs model in an axially symmetric ansatz. More properties of the solutions of these equations (the Melvin and the sting branches) are presented. These solutions are also…

Vortex solutions are topologically stable field configurations that can play an important role in condensed matter, field theory, and cosmology. We investigate vortex configuration in a 2+1 dimensional Abelian Higgs theory supplemented by…

We discuss vortex solutions of the abelian Higgs model in the limit of large winding number $n$. We suggest a framework where a topological quantum number $n$ is associated with a ratio of dynamical scales and a systematic expansion in…

We analyze the fluctuations of Nielsen-Olesen vortices arising in the six-dimensional Abelian-Higgs model. The regular geometry generated by the defect breaks spontaneously six-dimensional Poincar\'e symmetry leading to a warped space-time…

Vortex configurations in the electroweak gauge theory are investigated. Two gauge-inequivalent solutions of the field equations, the Z and W vortices, have previously been found. They correspond to embeddings of the abelian Nielsen-Olesen…
