    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    Not exactly. From the equations of motion I want to find two second order differential equations in ##a(r)## and ##f(r)##. That statement is just below the relevant equations section. My apologies for the bad formatting.

    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    The problem statement is as I've written it here. I got it from lecture notes I studied a while back when looking at solitons.

    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    This ansatz is in the form of a soliton. In easiest case it is time independent.

    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    Well the fields are time-independent. The hermitian conjugate of the EOM for ##\phi## is precisely the EOM for ##\phi^\dagger##. I don't see ow doing your trick in the ansatz will help further. I wrote it out but that makes everything more complicated in my opinion. What's wrong with the method...

    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    Yes ##\psi## indeed. I'd edit the post but seems like I can't do that anymore. I don't think I'd need to rewrite in a real and imaginary part though, since I have an explicit solution (ansatz)...

    Deriving equations of motion of abelian gauge field coupled to scalar

    I want to compute the equations of motion for this theory in terms of the functions ##f## and ##a##. My plan was to apply the Euler-Lagrange equations, but it got confusing very quickly. Am I right that we'll have 3 sets of equations? One for each of the fields ##\phi,\phi^\dagger, A_\mu## ...

    Why was my thread deleted?

    @berkeman This is a different post... But I'm looking for an answer there too! If you could maybe have a look :)

    Computing path integral with real and Grassmann variables

    The first step seems easy: computation of the $\theta$ and $\overline{\theta}$ integrals give $$Z[w] = \frac{1}{(2\pi)^{n/2}}\int d^n x \: \det(\partial_j w_i(x)) \exp{\left(-\frac{1}{2}w_i(x)w_i(x)\right)}.$$ From here, I tried using that $$\det(\partial_j w_i (x)) = \det\left(\partial_j w_i...

    Why was my thread deleted?

    Yes it is! It was similar to that question but I had some extended questions and gave some more details than that thread.

    Why was my thread deleted?

    First of all, I don't know where to put this. I had a thread in the advanced physics homework help (https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/calculating-the-transfer-function-for-dark-matter-numerically.1052335/#post-6883072) but it just vanished overnight. I never got a notification or something...

    MATLAB How to compute the following set of ODEs with ICs

    I'm stuggling with a similar problem! Any updates on this thread @JD_PM? or @phyzguy? I've also posted my version of this question on ths forum. I already found that the above method won't work, because this supposes an analytical solution can be found in Matlab. We'll need to implement a...
