Monopoles on R^5 and Generalized Nahm's equations

Differential Geometry 2016-10-04 v1

Abstract

Our approach to define monopoles is twistorial and we start by developing the twistor theory of R^5, which is an analogue of the twistor theory for R^3 developed by Hitchin. Using this, we describe a Hitchin-Ward transform for R^5, that gives monopoles. In order for us to construct monopoles we make use of spectral curves. Then, using those spectral curves we find a new system of equations, analogue to the Nahm's equations.
