Some exact static solutions of the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory are presented. These solutions satisfy the first order Bogomol'nyi equations, and possess infinite energies. They are axially symmetric and could possibly represent monopoles…
We compute the ultraviolet divergences in the self-dual Yang-Mills theory, both in the purely perturbative (zero instanton charge) and topologically non-trivial sectors. It is shown in particular that the instanton measure is precisely the…
We give an analytical solution representing circular magnetic monopole loops joining a pair of merons in the four-dimensional Euclidean SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. This is achieved by solving the differential equation for the adjoint color…
It is shown that the transformation between ordinary and noncommutative Yang-Mills theory as formulated by Seiberg and Witten is due to the equivalence of certain star products on the D-brane world-volume.
We prove the existence of a spectral resolution of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation when the matter field is provided by a massive Yang-Mills field. The resolution is achieved by first solving the free eigenvalue problem for the gravitational…

The topological properties of magnetic monopoles and center vortices arising, respectively, in Abelian and center gauges are studied in continuum Yang-Mills Theory. For this purpose the continuum analog of the maximum center gauge is…
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…
We show that we can retrieve a Yang--Mills potential and a Higgs field (up to gauge) from source-to-solution type data associated with the classical Yang--Mills--Higgs equations in Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$. We impose natural…
The behaviour of magnetic monopole solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs equations subject to linear spherically symmetric perturbations is studied. Using Jacobi's criterion some of the monopoles are shown to be unstable. Furthermore…
We argue that the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory presents nontrivial solutions with a NUT charge. These solutions approach asymptotically the Taub-NUT spacetime and generalize the known dyon black hole configurations. The main properties…
We present a derivation of the general form of the scalar potential in Yang-Mills theory of a non-commutative space which is a product of a four-dimensional manifold times a discrete set of points. We show that a non-trivial potential…
We perturbatively calculate classical radiation in Yang-Mills theory and dilaton gravity, to next-to-leading order in couplings. The radiation is sourced by the scattering of two relativistic massive scalar sources with the dynamical effect…
Some well known gauge scalar potential very often considered or used in the literature are investigated by means of the classical Yang Mills equations for the $SU(2)$ subgroups of $N_c=3$. By fixing a particular shape for the scalar…
The simplest and the most straightforward new algorithm for generating solutions to (anti) self-dual Yang-Mills (YM) equation in the typical gravitational instanton backgrounds is proposed. When applied to the Taub-NUT and the Eguchi-Hanson…
It is well known that there are no static non-Abelian monopole solutions in pure Yang-Mills theory on Minkowski space R^{3,1}. We show that such solutions exist in SU(N) gauge theory on the spaces R^2\times S^2 and R^1\times S^1\times S^2…
We construct a new Yang-Mills 3D-solution on the space of negative scalar curvarure. We discuss a problem of non-abelian gauge symmetry is broken with the assumption that a scalar curvature of the domain is a negative small parameter. In…
Magnetic monopoles are a long-standing prediction of Grand Unified Theories, yet their efficient production in early universe phase transitions would lead to a monopole abundance that far exceeds observational limits. The standard solution…
In this paper we prove gap theorems in Yang-Mills theory for complete four-dimensional manifolds with positive Yamabe constant. We extend the results of Gursky-Kelleher-Streets to complete manifolds. We also describe the equality in the gap…
We propose a new version of SU(N) Yang-Mills theory reformulated in terms of new field variables which are obtained by a nonlinear change of variables from the original Yang-Mills gauge field. The reformulated Yang-Mills theory enables us…
