Monopole Dynamics from the M-Fivebrane

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

We study the BPS states of the M-fivebrane which correspond to monopoles of N=2 SU(2) gauge theory. Far away from the centres of the monopoles these states may be viewed as solitons in the Seiberg-Witten effective action. It is argued that these solutions are smooth and some properties of their moduli space are discussed.
