The authors' main claim In many theories with flat directions of scalar potential, static vortex solutions do not exist for a generic choice of vacuum.
The compiled record
The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence
In many theories with flat directions of scalar potential, static vortex solutions do not exist for a generic choice of vacuum. In two Euclidean dimensions, we find their substitutes --- constrained instantons consisting of compact core formed by Abrikosov--Nielsen--Olesen vortex and long-ranged cloud of modulus field. In (3+1) dimensions, an initial compact configuration of string topology evolves in such a way that at every point in space the modulus relaxes, in a universal manner, to one and the same value characteristic to the theory.

The simplest case with anti-fundamental matter, i.e., the case of $N=N=1$, was studied for a bosonic theory [ref] and an $𝒩=1$ supersymmetric theory [ref] .

In the model discussed in this paper, this is not a priori clear due to the presence of massless degrees of freedom (see Ref. [ref] for some of the subtleties associated with the massless case).
