We clarify relations among topological solitons in various dimensions: a domain wall, non-
Abelian vortex, magnetic monopole, and Yang-Mills instanton, together with a (non-Abelian) …

We show that Z 3-valued particle-vortex braiding phases are present in high density quark
matter. Certain mesonic and baryonic excitations, in the presence of a superfluid vortex …

Quark-hadron continuity is a scenario in which hadronic matter is continuously connected to
a color superconductor without phase transitions as the baryon chemical potential …

We discuss the conditions under which Higgs and confining regimes in gauge theories with
fundamental representation matter fields can be sharply distinguished. It is widely believed …

A bstract We study dense nuclear and quark matter within a single microscopic approach,
namely the holographic Sakai-Sugimoto model. Nuclear matter is described via instantons …

We address emergent higher-form symmetry in Higgs phases with superfluidity. The
emergent symmetry appears if a matter field is invariant under a transformation of a common …

A bstract We discuss the low-energy dynamics of superfluidity with topological order in (3+
1) spacetime dimensions. We generalize a topological BF theory by introducing a non …

We find chiral non-Abelian vortices having windings only in one of the diquark
condensations of left-handed and right-handed quarks in the color-flavor locked phase of …

Quark-hadron continuity with two-flavor quarks that was proposed recently connects
hadronic matter with neutron P 2 3 superfluidity and two-flavor dense quark matter. This two …

We work out domain walls in neutron P 2 3 superfluids realized in the core of neutron stars.
Adopting the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory as a bosonic low-energy effective theory, we …
