We study monopoles and corresponding 't Hooft tensor in a generic gauge theory. This issue is relevant to the understanding of the color confinement in terms of dual symmetry.
We solve the non-linear monopole equation of the Born-Infeld theory to all orders in the NS 2-form and give physical implications of the result. The solution is constructed by extending the earlier idea of rotating the brane configuration…
The Bogomolny equations for Yang-Mills-Higgs monopoles follow from a system of linear equations which may be solved through a parametric Riemann-Hilbert problem. We extend this approach to noncommutative R^3 and use it to (re)construct…
Based on Morse theory for the energy functional on path spaces we develop a deformation theory for mapping spaces of spheres into orthogonal groups. This is used to show that these mapping spaces are weakly homotopy equivalent, in a stable…
A self-contained study of monopole configurations of pure Yang-Mills theories and a discussion of their charges is carried out in the language of principal bundles. A n-dimensional monopole over the sphere S^n is a particular type of…
The discrete Nahm equation is an integrable nonlinear difference equation for complex $N\times N$ matrices defined on a one-dimensional lattice, with rank and symmetry boundary conditions at the ends of the lattice. Solutions of this system…
Let (M, g) be a pseudo Riemannian manifold. We consider four geometric structures on M compatible with g: two almost complex and two almost product structures satisfying additionally certain integrability conditions. For instance, if r is a…
In this article, we establish a Hitchin-Kobayashi type correspondence for generalised Seiberg-Witten monopole equations on Kahler surfaces. We show that the "stability" criterion we obtain, for the existence of solutions, coincides with…
We introduce a general notion of twistorial map and classify twistorial harmonic morphisms with one-dimensional fibres from self-dual four-manifolds. Such maps can be characterised as those which pull back Abelian monopoles to self-dual…
A spherically symmetric monopole solution is found in SO(5) gauge theory with Higgs scalar fields in the vector representation in six-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. The action of the Yang-Mills fields is quartic in field strengths. The…
An interesting theme in complex differential geometry is to find a correspondence between algebraic objects and differential geometric objects. One of the most attractive is the non-abelian Hodge theory of Simpson. In this paper, pursuing…
We consider a large class of $q$-series that have the structure of Nahm sums, or equivalently motivic generating series for quivers. First, we initiate a systematic analysis and classification of classical and quantum A-polynomials…
Using a ribbon structure of the graph, we construct a dissection of the symmetric edge polytope of a graph into unimodular simplices. Our dissection is shellable, and one can interpret the elements of the resulting $h$-vector via graph…
We recall the quaternionic fomulation, which can simplify the computation of the linearized Yang-Mills-Higgs equation in the background of a 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole. We then study the solutions in the cases $j=0$, $j=1$ and $j\geq 2$…
The Dirac monopole on a three-dimensional torus is considered as a solution to the Bogomolny equation with non-trivial boundary conditions. The analytical continuation of the obtained solution is shown to be a three-dimensional…
We consider certain q-series depending on parameters (A,B,C), where A is a positive definite r times r matrix, B is an r-vector and C is a scalar, and ask when these q-series are modular forms. Werner Nahm conjectured a criterion for which…
In this paper we investigate the properties of the real and complex projective structures associated to Hitchin and quasi-Hitchin representations that were originally constructed using Guichard-Wienhard's theory of domains of discontinuity.…
We give a construction of the monopole bundles over fuzzy complex projective spaces as projective modules. The corresponding Chern classes are calculated. They reduce to the monopole charges in the N -> infinity limit, where N labels the…
Magnetic monopoles are studied in the context of a Two Measure Field Theory.
We develop the theory of twisted L^2-cohomology and twisted spectral invariants for flat Hilbertian bundles over compact manifolds. They can be viewed as functions on the first de Rham cohomology of M and they generalize the standard…
