We study the locality properties of the vortex operators in compact U(1) Maxwell-Chern-Simons and SU(N) Yang-Mills-Chem-Simons theories in 2+1 dimensions. We find that these theories do admit local vortex operators and thus in the UV regularized versions should contain stable magnetic vortices. In the continuum limit however the energy of these vortex excitations generically is logarithmically UV divergent. Nevertheless the classical analysis shows that at small values of the CS coefficient kappa the vortices become light. It is conceivable that they in fact become massless and condense due to quantum effects below some small kappa. If this happens the magnetic symmetry breaks spontaneously and the theory is confining.

Electric dipole moments of charged leptons in the split fermion scenario in the two Higgs doublet model Iltan, EO (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-11-01) We predict the charged lepton electric dipole moments in the split fermion scenario in the framework of the two Higgs doublet model. We observe that the numerical value of the muon (tau) electric dipole moment is of the order of the magnitude of 10(-22) e cm (10(-20) e cm) and there is an enhancement in the case of two extra dimensions, especially for the tau lepton electric dipole moment.
Magnetic dipole moments of the heavy tensor mesons in QCD Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (2015-11-03) The magnetic dipole moments of the D-2, and D-S2, B-2, and B-S2 heavy tensor mesons are estimated in framework of the light cone QCD sum rules. It is observed that the magnetic dipole moments for the charged mesons are larger than that of its neutral counterpart. It is found that the SU(3) flavor symmetry violation is about 10% in both b and c sectors.
Electric dipole moments of charged leptons and lepton flavor violating interactions in the general two Higgs doublet model Iltan, EO (American Physical Society (APS), 2001-07-01) We calculate the electric dipole moment of the electron using the experimental result of the muon electric dipole moment and upper limit of the BR(mu-->e gamma) in the framework of the general two Higgs doubler model. Our prediction is 10(-32) e cm, which lies in the experimental current limits. Further, we obtain constraints for the Yukawa couplings )over bar>(D)(N,taue) and )over bar>(D)(N,tau mu). Finally, we present an expression which connects the BR(tau-->mu gamma) and the electric dipole moment of th...
Deconfinement at N > 2: SU(N) Georgi-Glashow model in 2+1 dimensions Kogan, II; Tekin, Bayram; Kovner, A (2001-05-01) We analyse the deconfining phase transition in the SU(N) Georgi-Glashow model in 2 + 1 dimensions. We show that the phase transition is second order for any N, and the universality class is different from the Z(N) invariant Villain model. At large N the conformal theory describing the fixed point is a deformed SU(N)(1) WZNW model which has N - 1 massless fields. It is therefore likely that its self-dual infrared fixed point is described by the Fateev-Zamolodchikov theory of Z(N) parafermions.
Charged lepton electric dipole moments with localized leptons and new Higgs doublet in the two Higgs doublet model Iltan, E. O. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-08-01) We study the electric dipole moments of the leptons in the split fermion scenario, in the two Higgs doublet model, where the new Higgs scalars are localized around the origin in the extra dimension, with the help of the localizer field. We observe that the numerical value of the electric dipole moment of the electron (muon, tau) is of the order of the magnitude of 10(-31) ( 10(-24), 10(-22)) (e cm), and this quantity is sensitive to the new Higgs localization in the extra dimension.
