Quantum oscillations of self-dual Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen vortices

The mass shift induced by one-loop quantum fluctuations on self-dual ANO vortices is computed using heat kernel/generalized zeta function regularization methods. The quantum masses of super-imposed multi-vortices with vorticity lower than five are given. The case of two separate vortices with a quantum of magnetic flux is also discussed.

Changing shapes: adiabatic dynamics of composite solitary waves

We discuss the solitary wave solutions of a particular two-component scalar field model in two-dimensional Minkowski space. These solitary waves involve one, two or four lumps of energy. The adiabatic motion of these composite non-linear non-dispersive waves points to variations in shape.

On two-dimensional superpotentials: from classical Hamilton-Jacobi theory to 2D supersymmetric quantum mechanics

Superpotentials in ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric classical mechanics are no more than the Hamilton characteristic function of the Hamilton-Jacobi theory for the associated purely bosonic dynamical system. Modulo a global sign, there are several superpotentials ruling Hamilton-Jacobi separable supersymmetric systems, with a number of degrees of freedom greater than one. Here, we explore how supersymmetry and separability are entangled in the quantum version of this kind of system. We also show that the planar anisotropic harmonic oscillator and the two-Newtonian centers of force problem admit two non-equivalent supersymmetric extensions with different ground states and Yukawa couplings.

Kink manifolds in a three-component scalar field theory

In this work we identify the manifold of solitary waves arising in a three-component scalar field model using the Bogomol'nyi arrangement of the energy functional. A rich structure of topological and non-topological kinks exists in the different sub-models contained in the theory.

Degenerate BPS Domain Walls: Classical and Quantum Dynamics

We discuss classical and quantum aspects of the dynamics of a family of domain walls arising in a generalized Wess-Zumino model. These domain walls can be embedded in ${\cal N}=1$ supergravity as exact solutions and are composed of two basic lumps.

Supersymmetry versus Integrability in two-dimensional Classical Mechanics

Supersymmetric extensions of Hamilton-Jacobi separable Liouville mechanical systems with two degrees of freedom are defined. It is shown that supersymmetry can be implemented in this type of systems in two independent ways. The structure of the constants of motion is unveiled and the entanglement between integrability and supersymmetry is explored.

Jacobi Metric and Morse Theory of Dynamical Systems

The generalization of the Maupertuis principle to second-order Variational Calculus is performed. The stability of the solutions of a natural dynamical system is thus analyzed via the extension of the Theorem of Jacobi. It is shown that the Morse Theory of the trajectories in the dynamical system is identical to the Morse Theory of geodesics in the Jacobi metric, even though the second-variation functionals around the action and the Jacobi length do not coincide. As a representative example, we apply this result to the study of the separatrix solutions of the Garnier System.

Adiabatic motion of two-component BPS kinks

The low energy dynamics of degenerated BPS domain walls arising in a generalized Wess-Zumino model is described as geodesic motion in the space of these topological walls.

QED_{2+1}: Compton effect on Dirac-Landau electrons

Planar Quantum Electrodynamics is developed when charged fermions are under the influence of a constant and homogeneous external magnetic field. We compute the cross-length for the scattering of optical/ultraviolet photons by Dirac-Landau electrons.
