Recent work of Harland shows that the $SO(3)$-symmetric, dimensionally-reduced, charge-$N$ self-dual Yang--Mills calorons on the hyperbolic space $ H^3\times S^1$ may be obtained through constructing $N$-vortex solutions of an Abelian Higgs…
We prove the conjecture that a monopole in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space can be completely determined by its ``holographic'' image on the conformal boundary two-sphere.
These lectures start with an elementary introduction to the subject of magnetic monopoles which should be accesible from any physics background. In the Weinberg-Salam model of electroweak interactions, magnetic monopoles appear at the ends…
We prove that there exist Beltrami fields in Euclidean space, with sharp decay at infinity, which have a prescribed set of invariant tori (possibly knotted or linked) that enclose an arbitrarily large number of hyperbolic periodic orbits.…
The metric on the moduli space of charge (2,1) SU(3) Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield monopoles is calculated and investigated. The hyperKahler quotient construction is used to provide an alternative derivation of the metric. Various properties…
We construct examples of free-by-cyclic hyperbolic groups which fiber in infinitely many ways over Z. The construction involves adding a specialized square 2-cell to a non-positively curved, squared 2-complex defined by labeled oriented…
We introduce the Hyperbolic Higgs, a novel solution to the little hierarchy problem that features Standard Model neutral scalar top partners. At one-loop order, the protection from ultraviolet sensitivity is due to an accidental non-compact…
We construct integrable pseudopotentials with an arbitrary number of fields in terms of elliptic generalization of hypergeometric functions in several variables. These pseudopotentials yield some integrable (2+1)-dimensional hydrodynamic…
We investigate some properties of thick vortices and thick monopoles in the SU(2) lattice gauge theory by inserting operators that create these excitations. We measure the derivative of the free energy of the vortex with respect to the…
We survey work on the topology of the space AH(M) of all (marked) hyperbolic 3-manifolds homotopy equivalent to a fixed compact 3-manifold M with boundary. The interior of AH(M) is quite well-understood, but the topology of the entire space…
We study the relation between the flux of a center vortex obtained from the center vortex model and the flux formed between monopoles obtained from the Abelian gauge fixing method. Motivated by the Monte Carlo simulations which have shown…
There are three complete plane geometries of constant curvature: spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry. We explain how a closed oriented surface can carry a geometry which locally looks like one of these. Focussing on the hyperbolic…
On a complex curve, we establish a correspondence between integrable connections with irregular singularities, and Higgs bundles such that the Higgs field is meromorphic with poles of any order. The moduli spaces of these objects are…
We use the moduli matrix approach to study the moduli space of 1/4 BPS kinks supported by vortices in the Higgs phase of N = 2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories when non-zero masses for the matter hypermultiplets are introduced. We focus…
We construct, for the first time, Abelian-Higgs vortices on certain compact surfaces of constant negative curvature. Such surfaces are represented by a tessellation of the hyperbolic plane by regular polygons. The Higgs field is given…
We start to develop the quantization formalism in a hyperbolic Hilbert space. Generalizing Born's probability interpretation, we found that unitary transformations in such a Hilbert space represent a new class of transformations of…
We construct monopole solutions in SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory, carrying magnetic charge n. For vanishing and small Higgs selfcoupling, these multimonopole solutions are gravitationally bound. Their mass per unit charge is lower…
By a perturbation approach, we construct geometric solitons with various vortex structures(vortex pairs, vortex rings) for some geometric flows(Wave maps, Shr\"odinger flows) from Minkowski spaces to ${\mathbb S}^2\subset\R^3$.
Certain nontopological magnetic monopoles, recently found by Lee and Weinberg, are reinterpreted as topological solitons of a non-Abelian gauged Higgs model. Our study makes the nature of the Lee-Weinberg monopoles more transparent,…
We show how to construct non-spherically-symmetric extended bodies of uniform density behaving exactly as pointlike masses. These ``gravitational monopoles'' have the following equivalent properties: (i) they generate, outside them, a…
