Tachyon dynamics in open string theory

A Sen - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2005 - World Scientific
In this review we describe our current understanding of the properties of open string
tachyons on an unstable D-brane or brane–antibrane system in string theory. The various …

[КНИГА][B] Topological and non-topological solitons in scalar field theories

YM Shnir - 2018 - books.google.com
Solitons emerge in various non-linear systems as stable localized configurations, behaving
in many ways like particles, from non-linear optics and condensed matter to nuclear physics …

Integrable structure of conformal field theory II. Q-operator and DDV equation

VV Bazhanov, SL Lukyanov… - … in Mathematical Physics, 1997 - Springer
This paper is a direct continuation of 1 where we began the study of the integrable structures
in Conformal Field Theory. We show here how to construct the operators \bfQ_±(λ) which act …

Nonzero-temperature transport near quantum critical points

K Damle, S Sachdev - Physical Review B, 1997 - APS
We describe the nature of charge transport at nonzero temperatures (T) above the two-
dimensional (d) superfluid-insulator quantum-critical point. We argue that the transport is …

Boundary effects on symmetry resolved entanglement

R Bonsignori, P Calabrese - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the symmetry resolved entanglement entropies in one-dimensional systems with
boundaries. We provide some general results for conformal invariant theories and then …

Exact Conductance through Point Contacts in the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect

P Fendley, AWW Ludwig, H Saleur - Physical review letters, 1995 - APS
The conductance for tunneling through an impurity in a Luttinger liquid is described by a
universal scaling function. We compute this scaling function exactly, by using the …

Exact nonequilibrium transport through point contacts in quantum wires and fractional quantum Hall devices

P Fendley, AWW Ludwig, H Saleur - Physical Review B, 1995 - APS
We have recently calculated exact nonequilibrium quantum transport properties through a
point contact in a Luttinger liquid. Using a particular quasiparticle basis of the Hilbert space …

Observation of the Schmid–Bulgadaev dissipative quantum phase transition

R Kuzmin, N Mehta, N Grabon, RA Mencia… - Nature Physics, 2025 - nature.com
A classical particle moving in a periodic potential can localize inside a single potential
minimum, but a quantum particle forms extended states by tunnelling to neighbouring …
