Preheating in Palatini Higgs inflation on the lattice

Inar Timiryasov, Andrey Shkerin, Juraj Klaric, Adrien Florio

We study preheating following Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation of gravity. We numerically evolve perturbations of the radial mode of the Higgs field and that of three scalars modeling the gauge bosons. We compare the two non-perturbative mechani ...

Review of Nontopological Solitons in Theories with U(1)-Symmetry

Andrey Shkerin

We provide a review of nontopological solitonic solutions arising in theories with a complex scalar field and global or gauge U(1)-symmetry. It covers Q-balls, homogeneous charged scalar condensates, and nonlinear localized holes and bulges in a classicall ...

Exciton-polariton flows in cross-dimensional junctions

Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac

We study the nonequilibrium exciton-polariton condensation in 1D to 0D and 1D to quasi-2D junctions by means of non-resonant spectroscopy. The shape of our potential landscape allows to probe the resonant transmission of a propagating condensate between a ...

Higgs inflation and vacuum stability

Javier Rubio

Inflation is nowadays a well-established paradigm consistent with all the observations. The precise nature of the inflaton is however unknown and its role could be played by any candidate able to imitate a scalar condensate in the slow-roll regime. The dis ...

Bose-Einstein condensation of light in a cavity

Oleksandr Kriuchkov

The paper considers Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of light in a cavity with a medium. In the framework of a two-level model we show the effect of gaseous medium on the critical temperature of light condensation in the system. Transition of the system to ...

Coherence and Topological Defects in Exciton-Polariton Condensates

Francesco Manni

Exciton-polaritons are hybrid quasi-particles, eigenstates of the strong coupling regime between light and matter. Their Bose-Einstein condensation has been recently demonstrated, opening the way to several fundamental investigations on the associated phen ...

De Sitter vacua in no-scale supergravities and Calabi-Yau string models

Claudio Scrucca

We perform a general analysis on the possibility of obtaining metastable vacua with spontaneously broken N = 1 supersymmetry and non-negative cosmological constant in the moduli sector of string models. More specifically, we study the condition under which ...
