We study the confinement scenario in N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory near the monopole point upon breaking of N=2 supersymmetry by the adjoint matter mass term. We confirm claims made previously that the Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen…

Using the harmonic superspace approach, we construct the three-dimensional N=4 supersymmetric quantum mechanics of the supermultiplet (3,4,1) coupled to an external SU(2) gauge field. The off-shell N=4 supersymmetry requires the gauge field…
Certain exact results in supersymmetric gauge theories are generated by non-perturbative effects different from instantons. In supersymmetric QCD with N colours and Nf fundamental flavours we examine the Affleck-Dine-Seiberg (ADS)…
Certain spontaneously broken gauge theories contain massless magnetic monopoles. These are realized classically as clouds of non-Abelian fields surrounding one or more massive monopoles. In order to gain a better understanding of these…

We extend the investigation of BPS saturated t'Hooft-Polyakov monopoles in $\mathcal{M}^{2}\times S^{2}$ to the general case of $SU(N)$ gauge symmetry. This geometry causes the resulting $N-1$ coupled non-linear ordinary differential…
Various dynamical regimes associated with confined monopoles in the Higgs phase of N=2 two-flavor QCD are studied. The microscopic model we deal with has the SU(2)xU(1) gauge group, with a Fayet-Iliopoulos term of the U(1) factor, and large…
We consider a variant of the Georgi Glashow model in the BPS limit, augmented by a higher derivative Skyrme-like term, which is the simplest YMH model that can support monopole bound states. The spherically symetric solutions are studied…
We use group theoretic methods to obtain the extended Lie point symmetries of the equations of motion for a charged particle in the field of a monopole. Cases with certain model magnetic fields and potentials are also studied. Our analysis…
A numerical study of static spherically symmetric monople solutions of a spontaneously broken SU(2) gauge theory coupled to a dilaton field is presented. Regular solutions seem to exist only up to a maximal value of the dilaton coupling. In…
This paper is concerned with magnetic monopole solutions of SU(3) Yang-Mills-Higgs system beyond the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield limit. The different SU(2) embeddings, which correspond to the fundamental monopoles, as well the embedding…
When the magnetic sector of hot QCD, 3D SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, is described as a dilute gas of non-Abelian monopoles in the adjoint representation of the magnetic group, Wilson loops of N-ality k are known to obey a periodic k(N-k) law.…
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…
