Superconformal Vortex Strings
We study the low-energy dynamics of semi-classical vortex strings living above Argyres-Douglas superconformal field theories. The worldsheet theory of the string is shown to be a deformation of the CP model which flows in the infra-red to a superconformal minimal model. The scaling dimensions of chiral primary operators are determined and the dimensions of the associated relevant perturbations ...
متن کاملHeterotic Vortex Strings
We determine the low-energy N = (0, 2) worldsheet dynamics of vortex strings in a large class of non-Abelian N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories.
متن کاملQuantum Vortex Strings: A Review
The quantum worldsheet dynamics of vortex strings contains information about the 4d non-Abelian gauge theory in which the string lives. Here I tell this story. The string worldsheet theory is typically some variant of the CP sigma-model, describing the orientation of the string in a U(N) gauge group. Qualitative parallels between 2d sigma-models and 4d non-Abelian gauge theories have been known...
متن کامل7 Fundamental Strings , Holography , and Nonlinear Superconformal Algebras
We discuss aspects of holography in the AdS3×S near string geometry of a collection of straight fundamental heterotic strings. We use anomalies and symmetries to determine general features of the dual CFT. The symmetries suggest the appearance of nonlinear superconformal algebras, and we show how these arise in the framework of holographic renormalization methods. The nonlinear algebras imply i...
متن کامل“Topological” Formulation of Effective Vortex Strings
We present a “topological” formulation of arbitrarily shaped vortex strings in four dimensional field theory. By using a large Higgs mass expansion, we then evaluate the effective action of the closed Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortex string. It is shown that the effective action contains the Nambu-Goto term and an extrinsic curvature squared term with negative sign. We next evaluate the topologi...
