We deal with planar vortex structures in Maxwell-Higgs models in the presence of a generalized magnetic permeability. The model under investigation engenders a real parameter that controls the behavior of the tail of the solutions and of the quantities associated to them. As the parameter gets larger, the solutions attain their boundary values faster, unveiling the existence of a peculiar feature, the presence of double exponential tails. However, the solutions are not compact so we call them quasi-compact vortices.
We introduced a generalized Maxwell-Higgs model in a $(3+1)$ isotropic spacetime, and we found their stationary solutions using the BPS approach in curved spacetime. In order to investigate the compact-like vortices, we assume a particular choice for the generalization term. The model is controlled by a potential driven by a single real parameter that can be used to change the vortex solutions profile as they approach their bound values. Resembling some flat spacetime vortex solutions, our model tends to compress the vortices when the parameter $l$ increases. Through numerical analysis, we als…
We consider the exotic vortex equations on compact Riemann surfaces. These generalise the well-known Jackiw-Pi and Ambjørn-Olesen vortex equations and arise as equations for Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield-like configurations in nonrelativistic Chern-Simons-matter theories. We show that (exotic) vortex solutions in $U(N)$ gauge theories with a single fundamental flavour on compact Riemann surfaces can be constructed from gauged holomorphic maps into complex space forms of dimension $N$. We conjecture, with some evidence, that all such solutions arise this way. This leads us to insights regarding …
