Magneto-static vortices in two dimensional Abelian gauge theories
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the existence of vortices of the Klein-Gordon-Maxwell equations in the two dimensional case. In particular we find sufficient conditions for the existence of vortices in the magneto-static case, i.e when the electric potential φ = 0. This result, due to the lack of suitable embedding theorems for the vector potential A is achieved with the help of a penalization method.

Chern-Simons Term and Charged Vortices in Abelian and Nonabelian Gauge Theories
In this article we review some of the recent advances regarding the charged vortex solutions in abelian and nonabelian gauge theories with Chern-Simons (CS) term in two space dimensions. Since these nontrivial results are essentially because of the CS term, hence, we first discuss in some detail the various properties of the CS term in two space dimensions. In particular, it is pointed out that...
متن کاملVortex solutions in SU(N ) adjoint Higgs theories
A relationship between vortex solutions in SU(N) gauge theories with two or more adjoint representation Higgs bosons and thick vortices of Center Vortex Theory is shown to exist. There is a similar relationship between monopole solutions of SU(N) gauge theories with a single adjoint representation Higgs boson and monopoles in Abelian Projection. New vortex solutions, relevant in central gauge f...
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 کاملSupersymmetric Gauge Theories, Vortices and Equivariant Cohomology
We construct actions for (p, 0)-and (p, 1)-supersymmetric, 1 ≤ p ≤ 4, two-dimensional gauge theories coupled to non-linear sigma model matter with a Wess-Zumino term. We derive the scalar potential for a large class of these models. We then show that the Euclidean actions of the (2, 0) and (4, 0)-supersymmetric models without Wess-Zumino terms are bounded by topological charges which involve th...
متن کاملA study of center vortices in SU(2) and SU(3) gauge theories a
There are several approaches addressing the problem of understanding the mechanism of color confinement in non-Abelian gauge theories. The most popular share the idea that only a subset of the degrees of freedom are relevant for confinement. In the Abelian projection approach, one takes into account the maximal Abelian subgroup U(1) of the gauge group SU(N) and monopoles are the effective degre...
