We study the low-frequency, long-wavelength dynamics of soft and semi-soft nematic elastomers using two different but related dynamic theories. Our first formulation describes the pure hydrodynamic behavior of nematic elastomers in which the nematic director has relaxed to its equilibrium value in the presence of strain. We find that the sound-modes structure is identical to that of columnar li...

We describe the influence of the gapless, nodal, fermionic quasiparticles of a two-dimensional dwave superconductor on the motion of vortices. A continuum, functional formalism is used to obtain the effective vortex action, after the fermions have been integrated out. At zero temperture (T ), the leading terms in the vortex action retain their original form, with only a finite renormalization o...
