A shadowing lemma for abelian Higgs vortices
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use a shadowing-type lemma in order to analyze the singular, semilinear elliptic equation describing static self-dual abelian Higgs vortices. Such an approach allows us to construct new solutions having an infinite number of arbitrarily prescribed vortex points. Furthermore, we obtain the precise asymptotic profile of the solutions in the form of an approximate superposition rule, up to an error which is exponentially small.

Asymptotics for Selfdual Vortices on the Torus and on the Plane: A Gluing Technique
We consider multivortex solutions for the selfdual Abelian Higgs model, as the ratio of the vortex core size to the separation distance between vortex points (the scaling parameter) tends to zero. To this end, we use a gluing technique (a shadowing lemma) for solutions to the corresponding semilinear elliptic equation on the plane, allowing any number (finite or countable) of arbitrarily prescr...
متن کاملMonopoles and vortices in pure gauge theories and in Higgs theories
Smeared Abelian and center gauges are introduced in pure non-Abelian lattice gauge theories. Popular Abelian and center gauges are limits of smeared gauges. Smeared gauges are also shown to be equivalent to Higgs theories. As a result, distributions and interactions of monopoles and vortices, which are objects responsible for confinement in pure gauge theories, can be studied by investigating c...
متن کاملStatistical Mechanics of Vortices from D-branes and T-duality
We propose a novel and simple method to compute the partition function of statistical mechanics of local and semi-local BPS vortices in the Abelian-Higgs model and its non-Abelian extension on a torus. We use a D-brane realization of the vortices and T-duality relation to domain walls. We there use a special limit where domain walls reduce to gas of hard (soft) one-dimensional rods for Abelian ...
متن کاملShadowing for actions of some finitely generated groups
We introduce a notion of shadowing property for actions of finitely generated groups and study its basic properties. We formulate and prove a shadowing lemma for actions of nilpotent groups. We construct an example of a faithful linear action of a solvable Baumslag-Solitar group and show that the shadowing property depends on quantitative characteristics of hyperbolicity. Finally we show that a...

Non Abelian vortices of a SU(2) Chern-Simons–Higgs theory in 2+1 dimensions are constructed numerically. They represent natural counterparts of the U(1) solutions considered by Hong, Kim and Pac, and, by Jackiw and Weinberg. The Abelian embeddings are identified, for all values of the Higgs selfinteraction strength ν, resulting in both attractive and repulsive phases. A detailed analysis of the...
