Zero modes of six-dimensional Abelian vortices
We analyze the fluctuations of Nielsen-Olesen vortices arising in the sixdimensional Abelian-Higgs model. The regular geometry generated by the defect breaks spontaneously six-dimensional Poincaré symmetry leading to a warped space-time with finite four-dimensional Planck mass. As a consequence, the zero mode of the spin two fluctuations of the geometry is always localized but the graviphoton f...
متن کاملSix-dimensional Abelian vortices with quadratic curvature self-interactions
Six-dimensional Nielsen-Olesen vortices are analyzed in the context of a quadratic gravity theory containing Euler-Gauss-Bonnet self-interactions. The relations among the string tensions can be tuned in such a way that the obtained solutions lead to warped compactification on the vortex. New regular solutions are possible in comparison with the case where the gravity action only consists of the...
متن کاملMagnetic zero-modes, vortices and Cartan geometry
We exhibit a close relation between vortex configurations on the 2-sphere and magnetic zero-modes of the Dirac operator on [Formula: see text] which obey an additional nonlinear equation. We show that both are best understood in terms of the geometry induced on the 3-sphere via pull-back of the round geometry with bundle maps of the Hopf fibration. We use this viewpoint to deduce a manifestly s...
متن کاملGauge field localization on Abelian vortices in six dimensions
The vector and tensor fluctuations of vortices localizing gravity in the context of the six-dimensional Abelian Higgs model are studied. These string-like solutions break spontaneously six-dimensional Poincaré invariance leading to a finite four-dimensional Planck mass and to a regular geometry both in the bulk and on the core of the vortex. While the tensor modes of the metric are decoupled an...
متن کاملEffective Theory on Non-Abelian Vortices in Six Dimensions
Non-Abelian vortices in six spacetime dimensions are obtained for a supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory with N hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. Massless (moduli) fields are identified and classified into Nambu-Goldstone and quasi-Nambu-Goldstone fields. Effective gauge theories for the moduli fields are constructed on the fourdimensional world volume of vortices. A systematic met...
