We discuss a core instability of 't Hooft Polyakov monopoles in Alice electrodynamics type of models in which charge conjugation symmetry is gauged. The monopole may deform into a toroidal defect which carries an Alice flux and a…
A spherically symmetric excitations of the Polyakov - t' Hooft monopole are considered. In the framework of the geodesics deviation equation it is found that in the large mass Higgs sector a signature of chaos occurs.

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…
In this article, we carry out the Hamiltonization in the axial gauge, of the t'Hooft-Polyakov monopole field outside the localized region, which represents the monopole's core. One feature of the treatment here, is using the Higgs vacuum…

We consider the creation of 't Hooft-Polyakov magnetic monopoles by scattering classical wave packets of gauge fields. An example with eight clearly separated magnetic poles created with parity violating helical initial conditions is shown.…
Magnetic monopoles have been a subject of interest since Dirac established the relation between the existence of a monopole and charge quantization. 't Hooft and Polyakov proved that they can arise from gauge theories as the result of a non…
The 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole solution in Yang-Mills theory is given new physical interpretation in the geometric theory of defects. It describes solids with continuous distribution of dislocations and disclinations. The corresponding…
Lorentz invariance is broken for the non-Abelian monopoles. Here we will consider the case of 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole and show that the Lorentz invariance of its field will be restored using Dirac quantization.
At classical level, dynamical derivation of the properties and conservation laws for topologically non-trivial systems from Noether theorem versus the derivation of the system's properties on topological grounds are considered as distinct.…

By considering properties of the energy-momentum tensor of the electroweak magnetic monopole and its Born-Infeld extension, we attempt to make comments on the stability of these configurations. Specifically, we perform a study of the…
The stability problem of non-Abelian monopoles with respect to "Brandt-Neri-Coleman type" variations reduces to that of a pure gauge theory on the two-sphere. Each topological sector admits exactly one stable monopole charge, and each…
The angular momentum of any quantum system should be {\it unambiguously} quantized. We show that such a quantization fails for a pure Dirac monopole due to a previously overlooked field angular momentum from the monopole-electric charge…
