On Gauge Equivalence of Tachyon Solutions in Cubic Neveu-Schwarz String Field Theory

Simple analytic solution to cubic Neveu-Schwarz String Field Theory including the $GSO(-)$ sector is presented. This solution is an analog of the Erler-Schnabl solution for bosonic case and one of the authors solution for the pure $GSO(+)$ case. Gauge transformations of the new solution to others known solutions for the $NS$ string tachyon condensation are constructed explicitly. This gauge equivalence manifestly supports the early observed fact that these solutions have the same value of the action density.Comment: 8 pages, LaTe

Stable Exact Solutions in Cosmological Models with Two Scalar Fields

The stability of isotropic cosmological solutions for two-field models in the Bianchi I metric is considered. We prove that the sufficient conditions for the Lyapunov stability in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric provide the stability with respect to anisotropic perturbations in the Bianchi I metric and with respect to the cold dark matter energy density fluctuations. Sufficient conditions for the Lyapunov stability of the isotropic fixed points of the system of the Einstein equations have been found. We use the superpotential method to construct stable kink-type solutions and obtain sufficient conditions on the superpotential for the Lyapunov stability of the corresponding exact solutions. We analyze the stability of isotropic kink-type solutions for string field theory inspired cosmological models.Comment: 23 pages, v3:typos corrected, references adde

Localization of the SFT inspired Nonlocal Linear Models and Exact Solutions

A general class of gravitational models driven by a nonlocal scalar field with a linear or quadratic potential is considered. We study the action with an arbitrary analytic function $F(\Box)$, which has both simple and double roots. The way of localization of nonlocal Einstein equations is generalized on models with linear potentials. Exact solutions in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker and Bianchi I metrics are presented.Comment: 20 pages, 3 figures, published in the proceedings of the VIII International Workshop "Supersymmetries and Quantum Symmetries" (SQS'09), Dubna, Russia, July 29 - August 3, 2009, http://theor.jinr.ru/~sqs09

Black stars induced by matter on a brane: exact solutions

New exact asymptotically flat solutions of five-dimensional Einstein equations with horizon are found to describe multidimensional black stars generated by matter on the brane, conceivably on high energy colliders. The five-dimensional space-time is realized as an orbifold against reflection of a special extra-space coordinate and matter on the brane is induced by tailoring of the five-dimensional Schwarzschild-Tangherlini black hole metric.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, refs ordered, affiliation correcte

Non-minimally Coupled Cosmological Models with the Higgs-like Potentials and Negative Cosmological Constant

We study dynamics of non-minimally coupled scalar field cosmological models with Higgs-like potentials and a negative cosmological constant. In these models the inflationary stage of the Universe evolution changes into a quasi-cyclic stage of the Universe evolution with oscillation behaviour of the Hubble parameter from positive to negative values. Depending on the initial conditions the Hubble parameter can perform either one or several cycles before to become negative forever.Comment: 22 pages, 6 figures, v4:Section 2 expanded, references added, accepted for publication in Class.

On bouncing solutions in non-local gravity

A non-local modified gravity model with an analytic function of the d'Alembert operator is considered. This model has been recently proposed as a possible way of resolving the singularities problem in cosmology. We present an exact bouncing solution, which is simpler compared to the already known one in this model in the sense it does not require an additional matter to satisfy all the gravitational equations.Comment: 5 pages; v2: matching the jounral versio

Tachyon Solution in Cubic Neveu-Schwarz String Field Theory

A class of exact analytic solutions in the modified cubic fermionic string field theory with the GSO(-) sector is presented. This class contains the GSO(-) tachyon field and reproduces the correct value for the nonBPS D-brane tension.Comment: 17 pages, minor corrections(missing 1/2 is restored

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

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.

Gauge Symmetry Enhancement and Radiatively Induced Mass in the Large N Nonlinear Sigma Model

We consider a hybrid of nonlinear sigma models in which two complex projective spaces are coupled with each other under a duality. We study the large N effective action in 1+1 dimensions. We find that some of the dynamically generated gauge bosons acquire radiatively induced masses which, however, vanish along the self-dual points where the two couplings characterizing each complex projective space coincide. These points correspond to the target space of the Grassmann manifold along which the gauge symmetry is enhanced, and the theory favors the non-Abelian ultraviolet fixed point.Comment: 11 pages, REVTEX, typos are corrected, version to appear in Phys.

Supersymmetry and Integrability in Planar Mechanical Systems

We present an N=2-supersymmetric mechanical system whose bosonic sector, with two degrees of freedom, stems from the reduction of an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with the assumption of spatially homogeneous field configurations and a particular ansatz imposed on the gauge potentials in the dimensional reduction procedure. The Painleve test is adopted to discuss integrability and we focus on the role of supersymmetry and parity invariance in two space dimensions for the attainment of integrable or chaotic models. Our conclusion is that the relationships among the parameters imposed by supersymmetry seem to drastically reduce the number of possibilities for integrable interaction potentials of the mechanical system under consideration.Comment: 20 pages, 3 figure
