Wall Crossing Formula

AbstractIn this paper, we construct virtual cycles on moduli spaces of solutions to the perturbed gauged Witten equation over a fixed smooth r-spin curve, under the framework of [G. Tian and G. Xu, Analysis of gauged Witten equation, J. reine angew. Math. 740 (2018), 187–274]. Together with the wall-crossing formula proved in the companion paper [G. Tian and G. Xu, A wall-crossing formula for the correlation function of gauged linear σ-model, preprint], this paper completes the construction of the correlation function for the gauged linear σ-model announced in [G. Tian and G. Xu, Correlation functions in gauged linear σ-model, Sci. China Math. 59 (2016), 823–838] as well as the proof of its invariance.

Wall Crossing Formula

AbstractWe give a “wall-crossing” formula for computing the topology of the moduli space of a closed n-gon linkage on 𝕊2. We do this by determining the Morse theory of the function ρn on the moduli space of n-gon linkages which is given by the length of the last side—the length of the last side is allowed to vary, the first (n − 1) side-lengths are fixed. We obtain a Morse function on the (n − 2)-torus with level sets moduli spaces of n-gon linkages. The critical points of ρn are the linkages which are contained in a great circle. We give a formula for the signature of the Hessian of ρn at such a linkage in terms of the number of back-tracks and the winding number. We use our formula to determine the moduli spaces of all regular pentagonal spherical linkages.

Abstract We present a method for calculating event shapes in QCD based on correlation functions of conserved currents. The method has been previously applied to the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, but we demonstrate that supersymmetry is not essential. As a proof of concept, we consider the simplest example of a charge-charge correlation at one loop (leading order). We compute the correlation function of four electromagnetic currents and explain in detail the steps needed to extract the event shape from it. The result is compared to the standard amplitude calculation. The explicit four-point correlation function may also be of interest for the CFT community.

AbstractCoarse-grained descriptions of dislocation motion in crystalline metals inherently represent a loss of information regarding dislocation-dislocation interactions. In the present work, we consider a coarse-graining framework capable of re-capturing these interactions by means of the dislocation-dislocation correlation functions. The framework depends on a convolution length to define slip-system-specific dislocation densities. Following a statistical definition of this coarse-graining process, we define a spatial correlation function which will allow the arrangement of the discrete line system at two points—and thus the strength of their interactions at short range—to be recaptured into a mean field description of dislocation dynamics. Through a statistical homogeneity argument, we present a method of evaluating this correlation function from discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. Finally, results of this evaluation are shown in the form of the correlation of dislocation densities on the same slip-system. These correlation functions are seen to depend weakly on plastic strain, and in turn, the dislocation density, but are seen to depend strongly on the convolution length. Implications of these correlation functions in regard to continuum dislocation dynamics as well as future directions of investigation are also discussed.

In this paper, we propose a side-peak cancellation scheme for unambiguous BOC signal tracking. We obtain partial correlations using a pulse model of a BOC signal, and then, we finally obtain an unambiguous correlation function based on the partial correlations. The proposed correlation function is confirmed from numerical results to provide an improved tracking performance over the conventional correlation functions.

Distance Behavior

We study the effect of a finite temperature on the correlation function of quantum magnetic vortex lines in the framework of the (3 + 1)-dimensional Abelian Higgs model. The vortex energy is inferred from the large distance behavior of these correlation functions. For large straight vortices of length L, we obtain that the energy is proportional to TL2 differently from the zero temperature result which is proportional to L. The case of closed strings is also analyzed. For T = 0, we evaluate the correlation function and energy of a large ring. Finite closed vortices do not exist as genuine excitations for any temperature.

Hydrodynamic Correlation

This chapter argues that the hydrodynamic, correlation function methodology discussed in “fluid” contexts is really the same methodology employed in materials science to determine effective values for quantities like conductivity, elasticity, stiffness. Thus, Einstein’s arguments discussed in the previous chapter have a bearing on what prima facie appear to be completely different problems. The mesoscale approach using representative volume elements and correlation functions to describe the important features of those representative volume elements is presented in some detail.

Abstract We study the BPS invariants for local del Pezzo surfaces, which can be obtained as the signed Euler characteristic of the moduli spaces of stable one-dimensional sheaves on the surface $S$. We calculate the Poincaré polynomials of the moduli spaces for the curve classes $\beta $ having arithmetic genus at most 2. We formulate a conjecture that these Poincaré polynomials are divisible by the Poincaré polynomials of $((-K_S).\beta -1)$-dimensional projective space. This conjecture motivates the upcoming work on log BPS numbers [8].

Crucial Assumption

The main result is a wall-crossing formula for central projections defined on submanifolds of a Real projective space. Our formula gives the jump of the degree of such a projection when the center of the projection varies. The fact that the degree depends on the projection is a new phenomenon, specific to Real algebraic geometry. We illustrate this phenomenon in many interesting situations. The crucial assumption on the class of maps we consider is relative orientability, a condition which allows us to define a ℤ-valued degree map in a coherent way. We end the article with several examples, e.g. the pole placement map associated with a quotient, the Wronski map, and a new version of the Real subspace problem.

A full quantum description of global vortex strings is presented in the framework of a pure Higgs system with a broken global U(1) symmetry in 3+1D. An explicit expression for the string creation operator is obtained, both in terms of the Higgs field and in the dual formulation where a Kalb–Ramond antisymmetric tensor gauge field is employed as the basic field. The quantum string correlation function is evaluated and from this, the string energy density is obtained. Potential application in cosmology (cosmic strings) and condensed matter (vortices in superfluids) are discussed.
