Recent work of Harland shows that the $SO(3)$-symmetric, dimensionally-reduced, charge-$N$ self-dual Yang--Mills calorons on the hyperbolic space $ H^3\times S^1$ may be obtained through constructing $N$-vortex solutions of an Abelian Higgs…
In dipole-dipole scattering at large rapidity \chi={\rm ln}(s/s_0), the induced instanton on the string worldsheet carries entropy S_k=2(\alpha_{Pk}-1)\chi with \alpha_{Pk}-1 the pomeron intercept for a dipole source of N-ality k. This…
Radially symmetric non-BPS 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles and dyons are constructed as resurgent transseries: infinite sums of exponentially decaying terms, each multiplied by a factorially divergent fluctuation factor. All higher exponential…
Materials containing high densities of exceptionally displaceable ions (e.g. perovskites) have extremely large ratios of their static to high-frequency dielectric constants, > 2. Large polarons form in such materials as their electronic…
We consider Euclidean SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on the space GxR, where G is a compact semisimple Lie group, and introduce first-order BPS-type equations which imply the full Yang-Mills equations. For gauge fields invariant under the adjoint…
We study the correlation between instantons and QCD-monopoles both in the lattice gauge theory and in the multi-instanton system using the maximally abelian gauge. First, we find the existence of an almost linear correlation between the…

We calculate instanton corrections to three dimensional gauge theories with N=4 and N=8 supersymmetry and SU(n) gauge groups. The N=4 results give new information about the moduli space of n BPS SU(2) monopoles, including the leading order…
We generate a random instanton vacuum with various densities and size distributions. We perform numerically the maximally abelian gauge fixing of these configurations in order to find monopole trajectories induced by instantons. We find…

The effective potential in thermal gluodynamics has stable minima in perturbation theory. There the Wilson line is center group valued and eigenvalues of the Wilson line stay clustered. Calorons with non-trivial holonomy contribute to one…
We consider singly periodic solutions to the SU(2) Bogomolny equations and use the Nahm transform to generate a class of monopoles of charge k>2, thereby extending known results for lower charge chains. Some simple scattering processes are…
We fix the long-standing ambiguity in the 1-loop contribution to the mass of a 1+1-dimensional supersymmetric soliton by adopting a set of boundary conditions which follow from the symmetries of the action and which depend only on the…
We construct the fermion zero-mode for arbitrary charge one SU(n) calorons with non-trivial holonomy, both in the finite temperature context (anti-periodic boundary conditions in time) and in the Kaluza-Klein compactification context…
We study doubly periodic Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) lumps in supersymmetric CP^{N-1} non-linear sigma models on a torus T^2. Following the philosophy of the Harrington-Shepard construction of calorons in Yang-Mills theory, we…
We describe the internal composition of a topologically stable monopole carrying a magnetic charge of $6\pi/e$ that arises from the spontaneous breaking of the trinification symmetry $SU(3)_c\times SU(3)_L\times SU(3)_R$ ($G$). Since this…
