Non-supersymmetric meta-stable vacua from brane configurations (2007)
Journal Article
Franco, S., García-Etxebarria, I., & Uranga, A. (2007). Non-supersymmetric meta-stable vacua from brane configurations. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007(01), Article 085. https://doi.org/10.1088/1126-6708/2007/01/085

We construct configurations of NS-, D4-, and D6-branes in type IIA string theory, realizing the recently discussed non-supersymmetric meta-stable minimum of 4d = 1 SU(Nc) super-Yang-Mills theories with massive flavors. We discuss their lift to M-theo... Read More about Non-supersymmetric meta-stable vacua from brane configurations.

Skyrmions and the alpha-particle model of nuclei (2007)
Journal Article
Battye, R., Manton, N., & Sutcliffe, P. (2007). Skyrmions and the alpha-particle model of nuclei. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 463(2077), 261-279. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2006.1767

We compute new solutions of the Skyrme model with massive pions. Concentrating on baryon numbers which are multiples of four, we find low-energy Skyrmion solutions that are composed of charge four subunits, as in the alpha-particle model of nuclei. W...

Bulk-cone singularities & signatures of horizon formation in AdS/CFT (2007)
Journal Article
Hubeny, V. E., Liu, H., & Rangamani, M. (2007). Bulk-cone singularities & signatures of horizon formation in AdS/CFT. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007(01), https://doi.org/10.1088/1126-6708/2007/01/009

We discuss the relation between singularities of correlation functions and causal properties of the bulk spacetime in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular, we argue that the boundary field theory correlation functions are singular... Read More about Bulk-cone singularities & signatures of horizon formation in AdS/CFT.

Monopole wall (2007)
Journal Article
Ward, R. (2007). Monopole wall. Physical Review D, Particles and fields, 75(2), Article 021701(R). https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.75.021701

We construct, numerically, a solution of the SU(2) Bogomolny equations corresponding to a sheet of BPS monopoles. It represents a domain wall between a vacuum region and a region of constant energy density, and it is the smoothed-out version of the p... Read More about Monopole wall.

Three-page encoding and complexity theory for spatial graphs (2007)
Journal Article
Kurlin, V. (2007). Three-page encoding and complexity theory for spatial graphs. Journal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 16(01), 59-102. https://doi.org/10.1142/s021821650700521x

A finitely presented semigroup RSGn is constructed for n ≥ 2. The centre of RSGn encodes uniquely up to rigid ambient isotopy in 3-space all nonoriented spatial graphs with vertices of degree ≤ n. This encoding is obtained by using three-page embeddi... Read More about Three-page encoding and complexity theory for spatial graphs.

Computing Statistics from Man-Made Structures on the Earth's Surface for Indexing Satellite Images (2007)
Journal Article
Bhattacharya, A., Roux, M., Maitre, H., Jermyn, I., Descombes, X., & Zerubia, J. (2007). Computing Statistics from Man-Made Structures on the Earth's Surface for Indexing Satellite Images. International journal of simulation modelling, 6(2), 73-83

Indexing and retrieval from remote sensing image databases relies on the extraction of appropriate information from the data about the entity of interest (e.g. land cover type) and on the robustness of this extraction to nuisance variables. Other ent... Read More about Computing Statistics from Man-Made Structures on the Earth's Surface for Indexing Satellite Images.

Orbit-counting in non-hyperbolic dynamical systems (2007)
Journal Article
Everest, G., Miles, R., Stevens, S., & Ward, T. (2007). Orbit-counting in non-hyperbolic dynamical systems. Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik, 2007(608), 155-182. https://doi.org/10.1515/crelle.2007.056

There are well-known analogs of the prime number theorem and Mertens' theorem for dynamical systems with hyperbolic behaviour. Here we consider the same question for the simplest non-hyperbolic algebraic systems. The asymptotic behaviour of the orbit... Read More about Orbit-counting in non-hyperbolic dynamical systems.
