Book Description
This monograph discusses specific examples of selfdual gauge field structures, including the Chern–Simons model, the abelian–Higgs model, and Yang–Mills gauge field theory. The author builds a foundation for gauge theory and selfdual vortices by introducing the basic mathematical language of gauge theory and formulating examples of Chern–Simons–Higgs theories (in both abelian and non-abelian settings). Thereafter, the Electroweak theory and self-gravitating Electroweak strings are examined. The final chapters treat elliptic problems involving Chern–Simmons models, concentration-compactness principles, and Maxwell–Chern–Simons vortices.

Self-Dual Chern-Simons Theories
Author: Gerald Dunne
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540447776
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Self-duality greatly reduces the mathematical difficulties of a theory but it is also a notion of considerable physical significance. The new class of self-dual Chern-Simons theories discussed in detail in this book arise in the context of anyonic quantum field theory and have applications to models such as the quantum Hall effect, anyonic superconductivity, and Aharonov-Bohm scattering. There are also interesting connections with the theory of integrable models. The author presents the abelian and non-abelian models for relativistic and non-relativistic realizations of the self-dual Chern-Simons theories and finishes with some applications in quantum physics. The book is written for advanced students and researchers in mathematical, particle, and condensed matter physics.

Solitons in Field Theory and Nonlinear Analysis
Author: Yisong Yang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1475765487
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 571
Book Description
There are two approaches in the study of differential equations of field theory. The first, finding closed-form solutions, works only for a narrow category of problems. Written by a well-known active researcher, this book focuses on the second, which is to investigate solutions using tools from modern nonlinear analysis.

Nonlinear PDE’s in Condensed Matter and Reactive Flows
Author: Henri Berestycki
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401003076
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
Nonlinear partial differential equations abound in modern physics. The problems arising in these fields lead to fascinating questions and, at the same time, progress in understanding the mathematical structures is of great importance to the models. Nevertheless, activity in one of the approaches is not always sufficiently in touch with developments in the other field. The book presents the joint efforts of mathematicians and physicists involved in modelling reactive flows, in particular superconductivity and superfluidity. Certain contributions are fundamental to an understanding of such cutting-edge research topics as rotating Bose-Einstein condensates, Kolmogorov-Zakharov solutions for weak turbulence equations, and the propagation of fronts in heterogeneous media.

40 Years of Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless Theory
Author: Jorge V. Jos
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814417645
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
This volume looks back at some of the developments and achievements and varied physics applications which ensued from the BKT vortex-unbinding seminal idea. During the last four decades, BKT theory, which is undeniably one of the most important developments in condensed matter and theoretical physics of the second half of the twentieth century, has expanded widely. It has been used and extended from many different theoretical and experimental perspectives.
