Discrete-symmetry vortices as angular Bloch modes.
The most general form for symmetric modes of nonlinear discrete-symmetry systems with nonlinearity depending on the modulus of the field is presented. Vortex solutions are demonstrated to behave as Bloch modes characterized by an angular Bloch momentum associated to a periodic variable, periodicity being fixed by the order of discrete point-symmetry of the system. The concept of angular Bloch m...
متن کاملWhispering Bloch modes
We investigate eigenvalue problems for the planar Helmholtz equation in open systems with a high order of rotational symmetry. The resulting solutions have similarities with the whispering gallery modes exploited in photonic micro-resonators and elsewhere, but unlike these do not necessarily require a surrounding material boundary, with confinement instead resulting from the geometry of a serie...
متن کاملDiscrete reduced-symmetry solitons and second-band vortices in two-dimensional nonlinear waveguide arrays.
Considering a two-dimensional lattice of weakly coupled waveguides, where each waveguide may carry two orthogonal modes of dipolar character, we present a nonlinear discrete vector model for the study of Kerr optical solitons with profiles having a reduced symmetry relative to the underlying lattice. We describe analytically and numerically existence and stability properties of such states in s...
متن کاملZero modes of six-dimensional Abelian vortices
We analyze the fluctuations of Nielsen-Olesen vortices arising in the sixdimensional Abelian-Higgs model. The regular geometry generated by the defect breaks spontaneously six-dimensional Poincaré symmetry leading to a warped space-time with finite four-dimensional Planck mass. As a consequence, the zero mode of the spin two fluctuations of the geometry is always localized but the graviphoton f...
متن کاملCHARACTERIZING ANGULAR SYMMETRY AND REGRESSIONSYMMETRYBy
Let P be a probability distribution on I R p with a density. When P is angularly symmetric about some 0 then the probability of each closed halfspace with boundary through 0 is 1=2, so the maximal Tukey depth attains its upper bound of 1=2. Surprisingly also the converse holds, yielding a new characterization of angular symmetry (AS). The results are reformulated for totally general probability...
