Abstract

Detailed structures of vortices on a torus are discovered by performing an analytic method to calculate the vortex number. We focus on analytic vortex solutions to the Chern-Simons-Higgs theory, whose governing equation is the so-called Jackiw-Pi equation. The equation is one of the integrable vortex equations and is reduced to Liouville’s equation. The requirement of continuity of the Higgs field strongly restricts the characteristics and the fundamental domain of the vortices. Also considered are the decompactification limits of the vortices on a torus, in which “flux loss” phenomena occasionally occur.
