Topological Landau-Ginzburg theory for vortices in superfluid 4He.
We propose a new Landau-Ginzburg theory for arbitrarily shaped vortex strings in superfluid He. The theory contains a topological term and directly describes vortex dynamics. We introduce gauge fields in order to remove singularities from the Landau-Ginzburg order parameter of the superfluid, so that two kinds of gauge symmetries appear, making the continuity equation and conservation of the to...
متن کاملIntegrable hierarchy underlying topological Landau - Ginzburg models of D - type
A universal integrable hierarchy underlying topological Landau-Ginzburg models of D-type is presented. Like the dispersionless Toda hierarchy, the new hierarchy has two distinct (" positive " and " negative ") set of flows. Special solutions corresponding to topological Landau-Ginzburg models of D-type are characterized by a Riemann-Hilbert problem, which can be converted into a generalized hod...
متن کاملD-branes in topological minimal models: the Landau-Ginzburg approach
We study D-branes in topologically twisted N = 2 minimal models using the Landau-Ginzburg realization. In the cases of A and D-type minimal models we provide what we believe is an exhaustive list of topological branes and compute the corresponding boundary OPE algebras as well as all disk correlators. We also construct examples of topological branes in E-type minimal models. We compare our resu...
متن کاملOn the Landau-Ginzburg Realization of Topological Gravities
We study the equivariant cohomology of a class of multi-field topological Landau-Ginzburg models, and find that such systems carry intrinsic information about W -gravity. As a result, we can construct the gravitational chiral ring in terms of LG polynomials. We find, in particular, that the spectrum of such theories seems to be richer than so far expected. We also briefly discuss the BRST opera...
متن کاملTopological Correlators in Landau-Ginzburg Models with Boundaries
We compute topological correlators in Landau-Ginzburg models on a Riemann surface with arbitrary number of handles and boundaries. The boundaries may correspond to arbitrary topological D-branes of type B. We also allow arbitrary operator insertions on the boundary and in the bulk. The answer is given by an explicit formula which can be regarded as an open-string generalization of C. Vafa’s for...
