On the evolution of cosmic-superstring networks
read the original abstract
We model the behaviour of a network of interacting (p,q) strings from IIB string theory by considering a field theory containing multiple species of string, allowing us to study the effect of non-intercommuting events due to two different species crossing each other. This then has the potential for a string dominated Universe with the network becoming so tangled that it freezes. We give numerical evidence, explained by a one-scale model, that such freezing does not take place, with the network reaching a scaling limit where its density relative to the background increases with N, the number of string types.

Formation and scaling of $\mathbb{Z}_N$ strings for global $\mathrm{SU}(N)/\mathbb{Z}_N$ symmetry
In a global SU(N)/Z_N scalar model, Z_N-string networks with baryon-vertex-like junctions reach a scaling regime for N=2,3,4,5,8, with string density proportional to N^2-1.
