    Topological Excitation in Skyrme Theory

    Get PDF
    Based on the Ï•\phi-mapping topological current theory and the decomposition of gauge potential theory, we investigate knotted vortex lines and monopoles in Skyrme theory and simply discuss the branch processes (splitting, merging and intersection) during the evolution of the monopoles.Comment: 10 pages, 0 figure

    Topological structure of the many vortices solution in Jackiw-Pi model

    Full text link
    We construct an M-solitons solutions in Jackiw-Pi model depends on 5M parameters(two positions, one scale, one phase per solition and one charge of each solution). By using \phi -mapping method, we discuss the topological structure of the self-duality solution in Jackiw-Pi model in terms of gauge potential decomposition. We set up relationship between Chern-Simons vortices solution and topological number which is determined by Hopf indices and and Brouwer degrees. We also give the quantization of flux in this case.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure

    Gravitational Corrections to the Energy-Levels of a Hydrogen Atom

    Full text link
    The first order perturbations of the energy levels of a hydrogen atom in central internal gravitational field are investigated. The internal gravitational field is produced by the mass of the atomic nucleus. The energy shifts are calculated for the relativistic 1S, 2S, 2P, 3S, 3P, 3D, 4S and 4P levels with Schwarzschild metric. The calculated results show that the gravitational corrections are sensitive to the total angular momentum quantum number.Comment: 7 page

    Energy-momentum for Randall-Sundrum models

    Full text link
    We investigate the conservation law of energy-momentum for Randall-Sundrum models by the general displacement transform. The energy-momentum current has a superpotential and are therefore identically conserved. It is shown that for Randall-Sundrum solution, the momentum vanishes and most of the bulk energy is localized near the Planck brane. The energy density is ϵ=ϵ0e−3k∣y∣\epsilon = \epsilon_0 e^{-3k \mid y \mid}.Comment: 13 pages, no figures, v4: introduction and new conclusion added, v5: 11 pages, title changed and references added, accepted by Mod.

    Magnetic Monopoles in Ferromagnetic Spin-Triplet Superconductors

    Full text link
    Using the Ï•\phi-mapping method, we argue that ferromagnetic spin-triplet superconductors allow formation of unstable magnetic monopoles. In particular, we show that the limit points and the bifurcation points of the Ï•\phi-mapping will serve as the interaction points of these magnetic monopoles.Comment: 4 pages, no figure

    Fermions in gravity and gauge backgrounds on a brane world

    Full text link
    We solve the fermionic zero modes in gravity and gauge backgrounds on a brane involving a warped geometry, and study the localization of spin 1/2 fermionic field on the brane world. The result is that there exist massless spin 1/2 fermions which can be localized on the bulk with the exponentially decreasing warp factor if including U(1) gauge background. Two special cases of gauge backgrounds on the extra dimensional manifold are discussed.Comment: 11 pages, no figures, final versio

    Gauge-invariant gluon mass, infrared Abelian dominance and stability of magnetic vacuum

    Get PDF
    We give an argument for deriving analytically the infrared ``Abelian'' dominance in a gauge invariant way for the Wilson loop average in SU(2) Yang--Mills theory. In other words, we propose a possible mechanism for realizing the dynamical Abelian projection in the SU(2) gauge-invariant manner without breaking color symmetry. This supports validity of the dual superconductivity picture for quark confinement. We also discuss the stability of the vacuum with magnetic condensation as a by-product of this result.Comment: 25 pages, 3 figures (4 eps files); version accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.D; One paragraph is added at each end of sections 3,4 and 5 for comparing the analytical result with the lattice results of my group based on the new formulation, together with the results in the conventional MAG if available. footnote 4 is added, and a reference is added. A number of sentences and phrases are improve

    Separability and entanglement of four-mode Gaussian states

    Full text link
    The known Peres-Horodecki criterion and scaling criterion of separability are considered on examples of three-mode and four-mode Gaussian states of electromagnetic field. It is shown that the principal minors of the photon quadrature dispersion matrix are sensitive to the change of scaling parameters. An empirical observation has shown that the bigger the modulus of negative principal minors, the more entangled the state.Comment: 14 pages, 11 figure

    Modified London Equation, Abrikosov-Like Vortices and Knot Solitons in Two-Gap Superconductors

    Full text link
    We derive the exact modified London equation for the two-gap superconductor, compare it with its single-gap counterpart. We show that the vortices in the two-gap superconductor are soft (or continuous) core vortices. In particular, we discuss the topological structure of the finite energy vortices (Abrikosov-like vortices), and find that they can be viewed as the incarnation of the baby skyrmion stretched in the third direction. Besides, we point out that the knot soliton in the two-gap superconductor is the twisted Abrikosov-like vortex with its two periodic ends connected smoothly. The relation between the magnetic monopoles and the Abrikosov-like vortices is also discussed briefly.Comment: 3 pages, no figure
