We find a class of exact solutions of noncommutative gauge theories corresponding to unstable non-BPS solitons. In the two-dimensional euclidean (or 2+1 dimensional lorentzian) U(1) theory we find localized solutions carrying nonzero…
A simple formal computation, and a variation on an old thought experiment, both indicate that QCD with light quarks may confine fundamental color magnetic charges, giving an explicit as well as elegant resolution to the `global color'…

We prove the existence of dark monopole solutions in a recently formulated Yang--Mills--Higgs theory model with technical features similar to the classical monopole problems. The solutions are obtained as energy-minimizing static…
We establish that the Wu-Yang monopole needs the introduction of a magnetic point source at the origin in order for it to be a solution of the differential and integral equations for the Yang-Mills theory. That result is corroborated by the…

As shown by Taubes, in the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield limit the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model possesses smooth finite energy solutions, which do not satisfy the first order Bogomol'nyi equations. We construct numerically such a…
Numerical evidence for a cosmological version of the Bartnik-McKinnon family of particle-like solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system is presented. Our solutions are also static, but space has the topology of a three-sphere. By…
