| Popis: | The ground state of QCD with two flavors at a finite baryon chemical potential under rapid rotation is a chiral soliton lattice (CSL) of the $\eta$ meson, consisting of a stack of sine-Gordon solitons carrying a baryon number, due to the anomalous coupling of the $\eta$ meson to the rotation. In a large parameter region, the ground state becomes a non-Abelian CSL, in which due to the neutral pion condensation each $\eta$ soliton decays into a pair of non-Abelian sine-Gordon solitons carrying $S^2$ moduli originated from Nambu-Goldstone (NG) modes localized around it, corresponding to the spontaneously broken vector symmetry SU$(2)_{\rm V}$. There, the $S^2$ modes of neighboring solitons are anti-aligned, and these modes should propagate in the transverse direction of the lattice due to the interaction between the $S^2$ modes of neighboring solitons. In this paper, we calculate excitations including gapless NG modes and excited modes around non-Abelian and Abelian ($\eta$) CSLs, and find three gapless NG modes with linear dispersion relations (type-A NG modes): two isospinons ($S^2$ modes) and a phonon corresponding to the spontaneously broken vector SU$(2)_{\rm V}$ and translational symmetries around the non-Abelian CSL, respectively, and only a phonon for the Abelian CSL because of the recovering SU$(2)_{\rm V}$. We also find in the deconfined phase that the dispersion relation of the isospinons becomes of the Dirac type, {\it i.~e.~} linear even at large momentum. Comment: 32 pages, 11 figures |
