The abelian Higgs model on the noncommutative plane admits both BPS vortices and non-BPS fluxons. After reviewing the properties of these solitons, we discuss several new aspects of the former. We solve the Bogomoln'yi equations…

Let $(X, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold and $L$ be a Lagrangian submanifold. Suppose $(X, L)$ has a Hamiltonian $S^1$ action with moment map $\mu$. Take an invariant $\omega$-compatible almost complex structure, we consider…

The O(3) sigma model and abelian Higgs model in two space dimensions admit topological (Bogomol'nyi) lower bounds on their energy. This paper proposes lattice versions of these systems which maintain the Bogomol'nyi bounds. One consequence…

We consider nonlinear gauged sigma-models with Kahler domain and target. For a special choice of potential these models admit Bogomolny (or self-duality) equations -- the so-called vortex equations. We find the moduli space and energy…

We introduce a notion of ellipticity of complexes of linear pseudodifferential operators acting on sections of $A$-Hilbert bundles over smooth manifolds, $A$ being a $C^*$-algebra. We prove that the cohomology groups of an $A$-elliptic…

We consider the self-dual vortex equations on a positive line bundle L --> M over a compact Kaehler manifold of arbitrary dimension. When M is simply connected, the moduli space of vortex solutions is a projective space. When M is an…

We review the generalized monopole in the five-dimensional Euclidean space. A numerical solution with the Hedge-Hog ansatz is studied. The Bogomol'nyi equation becomes a second order autonomous non-linear differential equation. The equation…

We review the properties of BPS, or supersymmetric, magnetic monopoles, with an emphasis on their low-energy dynamics and their classical and quantum bound states. After an overview of magnetic monopoles, we discuss the BPS limit and its…

Mid-dimensional $(A,B,A)$ and $(B,B,B)$-branes in the moduli space of flat $G_{\mathbb C}$-connections appearing from finite group actions on compact Riemann surfaces are studied. The geometry and topology of these spaces is then described…

By studying the Higgs bundle equations with the gauge group replaced by the group of symplectic diffeomorphisms of the 2-sphere we encounter the notion of a folded hyperkaehler 4-manifold and conjecture the existence of a family of such…

We study the action of Bogoliubov transformations on admissible generalized one-particle density matrices arising in Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. We show that the orbits of this action are reductive homogeneous spaces, and we give…

At Bradlow's limit, the moduli space of Bogomol'nyi vortices on a compact Riemann surface of genus $g$ is determined. The K\"{a}hler form, and the volume of the moduli space is then computed. These results are compared with the…

Phenomenological compactifications of M-theory involve 7-manifolds with G_2 holonomy and various singularities. Here we study local geometries with such singularities, by thinking of them as compactifications of 7d supersymmetric Yang-Mills…

The Abelian Higgs model with or without external particles is considered in curved space. Using the dual transformation, we rewrite the model in terms of dual gauge fields and derive the Bogomol'nyi-type bound. We examine cylindrically…

We compute the dimension of the moduli space of gauge-inequivalent solutions to the Bogomolny equation on R^3 with prescribed singularities corresponding to the insertion of a finite number of 't Hooft defects. We do this by generalizing…

In higher dimensional gauge theory, we need energies with higher power terms of field strength in order to realize point-wise monopoles. We consider new models with higher power terms of field strength and extraordinary kinetic term of…

The purpose of this paper is to describe a relationship between the moduli space of vortices and the moduli space of instantons. We study charge k vortices in U(N) Yang-Mills-Higgs theories and show that the moduli space is isomorphic to a…

Let $X=\mathbb{C}\times\Sigma$ be the product of the complex plane and a compact Riemann surface. We establish a classification theorem of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equation on $X$ with finite analytic energy. The spin bundle $S^+\to…

We deal with the presence of magnetic monopoles in a non Abelian model that generalizes the standard 't~Hooft-Polyakov model in three spatial dimensions. We investigate the energy density of the static and spherically symmetric solutions to…

We study the locus of the moduli space of Higgs bundles on a curve given by those Higgs bundles obtained by pushforward under an unramified cover. We equip these loci with a hyperholomorphic bundle so that they can be viewed as BBB-branes,…
