DOI: 10.1007/jhep07(2025)083
Abstract: We study topological defect lines in the symmetric-product orbifolds SymN(X) for a generic seed CFT X. We focus on the defects which preserve the maximum of the SN symmetry. When X is taken to describe… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijleo.2021.166335
Abstract: Abstract We show that the effect of linear dichroism produces vector-vortex beams in axially inhomogeneous optically birefringent material samples. When the linear dichroism dominates (the corresponding parameter σ = 0), a vector-vortex beam is generated at the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.molliq.2017.12.063
Abstract: Abstract The dynamics of rod-shaped micro-particles, trapped within a topological defect, was investigated. It is demonstrated that there is an attractive interaction force between particle and defect, which is of the order of F ≈ 30 pN, pulling… read more here.

Abstract: Cracks develop intricate patterns on the surfaces that they create. As faceted fracture surfaces are commonly formed by slow tensile cracks in both crystalline and amorphous materials, facet formation and structure cannot reflect microscopic order.… read more here.
