Vortex dynamics in self-dual Chern-Simons-Higgs systems.

چکیده
We consider vortex dynamics in self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs systems. We show that the naive Aharanov-Bohm phase is the inverse of the statistical phase expected from the vortex spin, and that the self-dual configurations of vortices are degenerate in energy but not in angular momentum. We also use the path integral formalism to derive the dual formulation of Chern-Simons Higgs systems in which vortices appear as charged particles. We argue that besides the electromagnetic interaction, there is an additional interaction between vortices, the so-called Magnus force, and that these forces can be put together into a single ‘dual electromagnetic’ interaction. This dual electromagnetic interaction leads to the right Aharanov-Bohm phase. We also derive and study the effective action for slowly moving vortices, which contains terms both linear and quadratic in the vortex velocity. October 1992 ∗ Y.

Vortex Condensates in the Relativistic Self-Dual Maxwell-Chern-Simons-Higgs System
The existence of vortex condensates in the self-dual Maxwell-ChernSimons-Higgs System on a flat torus is proved by the super-sub solution method under the assumption that the total vortex number in a given periodic domain is not too large. We also study the limiting behaviors of the solutions as the Chern-Simons coupling constant goes to some limits. In the Abelian-Higgs limit we find that our ...

متن کاملThe Chern-Simons Coefficient in the Higgs Phase
We study one-loop corrections to the Chern-Simons coefficient κ in abelian self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs systems and their N = 2 and N = 3 supersymmetric generalizations in both symmetric and asymmetric phases. One-loop corrections to the Chern-Simons coefficient of these systems turn out to be integer multiples of 1/4π in both phases. Especially in the maximally supersymmetric N = 3 case, the c...
متن کاملSelf-dual vortices in the generalized Abelian Higgs model with independent Chern-Simons interaction.
Self-dual vortex solutions are studied in detail in the generalized abelian Higgs model with independent Chern-Simons interaction. For special choices of couplings, it reduces to a Maxwell-Higgs model with two scalar fields, a Chern-Simons-Higgs model with two scalar fields, or other new models. We investigate the properties of the static solutions and perform detailed numerical analyses. For t...

In these lectures I review classical aspects of the self-dual Chern-Simons systems which describe charged scalar fields in 2 + 1 dimensions coupled to a gauge field whose dynamics is provided by a pure Chern-Simons Lagrangian. These self-dual models have one realization with nonrelativistic dynamics for the scalar fields, and another with relativistic dynamics for the scalars. In each model, th...
