Solitons in the Higgs phase: the moduli matrix approach

M Eto, Y Isozumi, M Nitta, K Ohashi… - Journal of Physics A …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We review our recent work on solitons in the Higgs phase. We use U (NC) gauge theory with
NF Higgs scalar fields in the fundamental representation, which can be extended to possess …

Chiral magnets from string theory

Y Amari, M Nitta - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract Chiral magnets with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction have received

Interface Yang–Mills, supersymmetry, and janus

E D'Hoker, J Estes, M Gutperle - Nuclear Physics B, 2006 - Elsevier
We consider theories consisting of a planar interface with N= 4 super-Yang–Mills on either
side and varying gauge coupling across the interface. The interface does not carry any …

Non-Abelian vortices on a cylinder: Duality between vortices and walls

M Eto, T Fujimori, Y Isozumi, M Nitta, K Ohashi… - Physical Review D …, 2006 - APS
We investigate vortices on a cylinder in supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theory with
hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We identify moduli space of periodic …

A systematic method to obtain the effective Lagrangian on the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-
Sommerfield background in supersymmetric gauge theories is worked out, taking domain …

Josephson vortices and the Atiyah-Manton construction

M Nitta - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2012 - APS
We show that sine-Gordon solitons appear in the low-energy effective theory of a domain
wall in a U (1) gauge theory with two charged complex scalar fields with masses if we …

Classifying bions in Grassmann sigma models and non-Abelian gauge theories by D-branes

T Misumi, M Nitta, N Sakai - Progress of Theoretical and …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
We classify bions in the Grassmann sigma model (including the model) on with twisted
boundary conditions. We formulate these models as gauge theories with flavors in the …

1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 BPS equations in SUSY Yang–Mills–Higgs systems: Field theoretical brane configurations

M Eto, Y Isozumi, M Nitta, K Ohashi - Nuclear Physics B, 2006 - Elsevier
We systematically classify 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 BPS equations in SUSY gauge theories in d= 6,
5, 4, 3 and 2 with eight supercharges, with gauge groups and matter contents being …

Fractional vortex molecules and vortex polygons in a baby Skyrme model

M Kobayashi, M Nitta - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2013 - APS
We construct a molecule of fractional vortices with fractional topological lump charges as a
baby Skyrmion with the unit topological lump charge in the antiferromagnetic (or XY) baby …

Domain walls with non-Abelian clouds

M Eto, T Fujimori, M Nitta, K Ohashi, N Sakai - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2008 - APS
Domain walls in U (N) gauge theories, coupled to Higgs scalar fields with degenerate
masses, are shown to possess normalizable non-Abelian Nambu-Goldstone (NG) modes …
