A method to construct noncommutative instantons as deformations from commutative instantons was provided in arXiv:0805.3373. Using this noncommutative deformed instanton, we investigate the spinor zero modes of the Dirac operator in a…
We study analytic aspects of U(n) gauge theory over a toric noncommutative manifold $M_\theta$. We analyse moduli spaces of solutions to the self-dual Yang-Mills equations on U(2) vector bundles over four-manifolds $M_\theta$, showing that…
Recently, it was shown that in the absence of gravity there exist non-$O(4)$-symmetric instanton solutions with finite action beyond Coleman's instantons. In this paper, focusing on the false-vacuum decay in a single scalar field in flat…
A characterization of instanton contributions to gauge field theory is given. The dynamics of instantons with the gluon field is given in terms of 'classical' instanton contributions, i.e. on the same footing as tree amplitudes in field…
We use the twistorial construction of D-instantons in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type II string theory to compute an explicit expression for the metric on the hypermultiplet moduli space affected by these non-perturbative corrections.…
A certain U(1) model in 2 dimensions, describing four right handed unit charged Weyl fermions interacting with one doubly charged left handed Weyl fermion, is exactly soluble and has massless Majorana-Weyl composites. Instanton induced…
We associate several invariants to a knot in an integer homology 3-sphere using $SU(2)$ singular instanton gauge theory. There is a space of framed singular connections for such a knot, equipped with a circle action and an equivariant…
Instanton correction of prepotential of one-dimensional SL(2) Ruijsenaars model is presented with the help of Picard-Fuchs equation of Pakuliak-Perelomov type. It is shown that the instanton induced prepotential reduces to that of the SU(2)…
Starting from trace formulae for the tunnelling splittings (or decay rates) analytically continued in the complex time domain, we obtain explicit semiclassical expansions in terms of complex trajectories that are selected with appropriate…
We propose a topological soliton or instanton solution with nonzero Hopf invariant to the 3+1D non-Abelian gauge theory coupled with scalar fields. This solution, which we call Hopf soliton, represents a spacetime event that makes a $2\pi$…
We explore the deformation theory of instantons on locally conformal (LC) $Spin(7)$ manifolds. These structures, characterized by a non-parallel fundamental 4-form $\Phi$ satisfying $d\Phi = \theta \wedge \Phi$, represent a significant, yet…
We revisit the generalised ADHM construction for instantons in non-commutative space using a manifestly quaternionic formalism. This leads to an identification of the self-dual part of theta^mn as the imaginary part of the size modulus of…
The classical Einstein's gravity can be reformulated from the constrained U(2,2) gauge theory on the ordinary (commutative) four-dimensional spacetime. Here we consider a noncommutative manifold with a symplectic structure and construct a…
The exact Seiberg-Witten (SW) map of a noncommutative (NC) gauge theory gives the commutative equivalent as an ordinary gauge theory coupled to a field dependent effective metric. We study instanton solutions of this commutative equivalent…
We deform classical holomorphic Chern--Simons theory on a Calabi--Yau three-fold $X$ by deforming the complex structure by a deformation parameter $h \in\mathscr{H}^{0,1}(T^{1,0}X)$. The corresponding equations of motion admit new…
From the ADHM construction on noncommutative $R_{\theta}^4$ we investigate different U(1) instanton solutions tied by isometry trasformations. These solutions present a form of vector fields in noncommutative $R_{\theta}^3$ vector space…
