Are Glueballs Knotted Closed Strings?
Glueballs have a natural interpretation as closed strings in Yang-Mills theory. Their stability requires that the string carries a nontrivial twist, or then it is knotted. Since a twist can be either left-handed or right-handed, this implies that the glueball spectrum must be degenerate. This degeneracy becomes consistent with experimental observations, when we identify the ηL(1410) component o...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of Knotted Strings Attached to D-Branes
We extend the general solution to the Cauchy problem for the relativistic closed string (Phys. Lett. B404 (1997) 57-65) to the case of open strings attached to Dp-branes, including the cases where the initial data has a knotlike topology. We use this extended solution to derive intrinsic dynamical properties of open and closed relativistic strings attached to Dp-branes. We also study the singul...
متن کاملDomain Lines as Fractional Strings
We consider N = 2 supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics (SQED) with 2 flavors, the Fayet–Iliopoulos parameter, and a mass term β which breaks the extended supersymmetry down to N = 1. The bulk theory has two vacua; at β = 0 the BPS-saturated domain wall interpolating between them has a moduli space parameterized by a U(1) phase σ which can be promoted to a scalar field in the effective low-ene...
متن کاملMinimally Knotted Spatial Graphs are Totally Knotted
Applying Jaco’s Handle Addition Lemma, we give a condition for a 3-manifold to have an incompressible boundary. As an application, we show that the boundary of the exterior of a minimally knotted planar graph is incompressible.
متن کاملDynamics of Strings between Domain Walls
Configurations of vortex-strings stretched between or ending on domain walls were previously found to be 1/4 BPS states. Among zero modes of string positions, the center of mass of strings in each region between two adjacent domain walls is shown to be non-normalizable whereas the rests are normalizable. We study dynamics of vortex-strings stretched between separated domain walls by using two m...
