Dirichlet Solitons in Field Theories
I briefly describe a new class of soliton configurations in field theories. These consist of topological defects which can end when they intersect other defects of equal or higher dimensionality. Such configurations may be termed “Dirichlet topological defects”, in analogy with the D-branes of string theory. I provide a specific example cosmic strings that terminate on domain walls and discuss ...
متن کاملBPS solitons in Lifshitz field theories
Abstract Lorentz-invariant scalar field theories in d+1 dimensions with second-order derivative terms are unable to support static soliton solutions that are both finite in energy and stable for d > 2, a result known as Derrick’s theorem. Lifshitz theories, which introduce higher-order spatial derivatives, need not obey Derrick’s theorem. We construct stable, finite-energy, static soliton solut...
متن کاملSolitons in Two–dimensional Topological Field Theories
We consider a class of N = 2 supersymmetric non–unitary theories in two– dimensional Minkowski spacetime which admit classical solitonic solutions. We show how these models can be twisted into a topological sector whose energy–momentum tensor is a BRST commutator. There is an infinite number of degrees of freedom associated to the zero modes of the solitons. As explicit realizations of such mod...
متن کاملSuperconformal Field Theories for Compact G2 Manifolds
We present the construction of exactly solvable superconformal field theories describing Type II string models compactified on compact G2 manifolds. These models are defined by anti-holomorphic quotients of the form (CY×S)/ZZ2, where we realize the Calabi-Yau as a Gepner model. In the superconformal field theory the ZZ2 acts as charge conjugation implying that the representation theory of a W(2...
متن کاملBaryons as Solitons in Effective Chiral Field Theories
This lecture comprises some recent developments concerning the description of baryons as topological solitons in effective chiral meson theories. In the first part one-loop corrections to the classical tree approximation are discussed. This involves renormalization of low-energy coupling constants and evaluation of the finite next-to-leading-order terms in the 1/Nc expansion. In contrast to the...
