In this talk, we give a brief discussion of complex monopole solutions in the three dimensional Georgi-Glashow model with a Chern-Simons term. We find that there exist complex monopole solutions of finite action. They dominate the path…
Complex monopole solutions exist in the three dimensional Georgi-Glashow model with the Chern-Simons term. They dominate the path integral and disorder the Higgs vacuum. Gribov copies of the vacuum and monopole configurations are studied in…
Complex monopole configurations dominate in the path integral in the Georgi-Glashow-Chern-Simons model and disorder the Higgs vacuum. No cancellation is expected among Gribov copies of the monopole configurations.
Monopoles in topologically massive gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions with a Chern-Simon mass term have been studied by Pisarski some years ago. He investigated the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model with an additional Chern-Simon mass term in the…
Confining strings are investigated in the (2+1)D Georgi-Glashow model. This is done in the limit when the electric coupling constant is much larger than the square root of the mass of the Higgs field, but much smaller than the vacuum…
We discuss a class of effective extensions of the $SU(2)$ Georgi-Glashow model and discuss its Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) limit. We identify a specific subclass of these models that admit analytical solutions of the monopole type.…

In higher dimensional gauge theory, we need energies with higher power terms of field strength in order to realize point-wise monopoles. We consider new models with higher power terms of field strength and extraordinary kinetic term of…
It is known that a non-Abelian magnetic monopole cannot rotate globally (although it may possess a nonzero angular momentum density). At the same time, the total angular momentum of a magnetic dipole equals the electric charge. In this work…
Self-dual vortex solutions are studied in detail in the generalized abelian Higgs model with independent Chern-Simons interaction. For special choices of couplings, it reduces to a Maxwell-Higgs model with two scalar fields, a…
We construct the first analytic examples of non-homogeneous condensates in the Georgi-Glashow model at finite density in $(2+1)$ dimensions. The non-homogeneous condensates, which live within a cylinder of finite spatial volume, possess a…
Monopole operators in Chern-Simons theories with charged matter have been studied using the state-operator map in CFTs, as states on $\mathbb{R}\times S^2$ with background magnetic flux on $S^2$. Gauge invariance requires a dressing with…
