There are three types of monopole in gauge theories with fundamental matter and N=2 supersymmetry broken by a superpotential. There are unconfined 0-monopoles and also 1 and 2-monopoles confined respectively by one or two vortices…
Electron hopping models on the honeycomb lattice are studied. The lattice consists of two triangular sublattices, and it is non-Bravais. The dual space has non-trivial topology. The gauge fields of Bloch electrons have the U(1) symmetry and…

The O(3) nonlinear sigma model with boundary, in dimension two, is considered. An algorithm to determine all its soliton solutions that preserve a rotational symmetry in the boundary is exhibited. This nonlinear problem is reduced to that…
We describe new solutions of Yang-Mills-Higgs theories consisting of magnetic monopoles in a phase with fully broken gauge symmetry. Rather than spreading out radially, the magnetic field lines form flux tubes. The solution is topologically…
We review results of the last two years concerning caloron solutions of unit charge with non-trivial holonomy, revealing the constituent monopole nature of these instantons. For SU(n) there are n such BPS constituents. New is the…

Within the framework of the gauge-invariant, but path-dependent, variables formalism, we study the connection between scale symmetry breaking and confinement in three-dimensional gluodynamics. We explicitly show that the static potential…
This paper deals with static BPS monopoles in three dimensions which are periodic either in one direction (monopole chains) or two directions (monopole sheets). The Nahm construction of the simplest monopole chain is implemented…
The scalars of an N = 1 supersymmetric sigma-model in 4 dimensions parameterize a Kaehler manifold. The transformations of their fermionic superpartners under the isometries are often anomalous. These anomalies can be canceled by…
This article provides an account of the functorial correspondence between irreducible singular $G$-monopoles on $S^1\times \Sigma$ and $\vec{t}$-stable meromorphic pairs on $\Sigma$. The main theorem of [1] is thus generalized here from…
We present general results on generating $\text{AdS}_2$ solutions to Type II supergravity from $\text{AdS}_3$ solutions via U(1) and SL(2) T-dualities. We focus on a class of Type IIB solutions with small $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetry, that…
We construct a partial compactification of the moduli space, M_k, of SU(2) magnetic monopoles on R^3, wherein monopoles of charge k decompose into widely separated 'monopole clusters' of lower charge going off to infinity at comparable…
Seiberg-like dualities in $2+1$d quiver gauge theories with $4$ supercharges are investigated. We consider quivers made of various combinations of classical gauge groups $U(N)$, $Sp(N)$, $SO(N)$ and $SU(N)$. Our main focus is the mapping of…
The relation between 3-cocycles arising in the Dirac monopole problem and nonassociative gauge transformations is studied. It is shown that nonassociative extension of the group U(1) allows to obtain a consistent theory of pointlike…
Topology in general but also topological objects such as monopoles are a central concept in physics. They are prime examples for the intriguing physics of gauge theories and topological states of matter. Vector monopoles are already…
A numerical study of static spherically symmetric monople solutions of a spontaneously broken SU(2) gauge theory coupled to a dilaton field is presented. Regular solutions seem to exist only up to a maximal value of the dilaton coupling. In…
