Studying critical string emerging from non-Abelian vortex in four dimensions

Recently a special vortex string was found [5] in a class of soliton vortices supported in four-dimensional Yang–Mills theories that under certain conditions can become infinitely thin and can be interpreted as a critical ten-dimensional string. The appropriate bulk Yang–Mills theory has the U(2) ga...
