Infinite energy solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{R}^2$ may be constructed by decomposing the initial data into a finite energy piece and an infinite energy piece, which are then treated separately. We prove that the…

This article provides an explicit construction for a family of singular instantons on S^4 S^2 with arbitrary real holonomy parameter \alpha. This family includes the original \alpha = 1/4, c_2 = 3/2 solution discovered by P. Forgacs, Z.…
Analytic Nahm data is re-examined for SU(2) calorons, or periodic instantons, of instanton charge 2. The Nahm equations are solved analytically in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions and the possible matching conditions are classified. The…

In this article we consider a path integral formulation of the Hubbard model based on a SU(2)-symmetrical Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation that couples auxiliary field to the local electronic density. This decoupling is known to have a…
The two-dimensional hydrogen-like atom in a constant magnetic field is considered. It is found that this is actually two separate problems. One for which the magnetic field causes an effective attraction between the nucleus and the electron…
We have been able to observe directly extended instantons on the lattice, with a new method that does not require dislocations to measure them, and where we do not perform cooling. We showed, based on the simple Abelian Higgs model in $1+1$…
We employ the twistor approach to the construction of U(2) multi-instantons `a la 't Hooft on noncommutative R^4. The noncommutative deformation of the Corrigan-Fairlie-'t Hooft-Wilczek ansatz is derived. However, naively substituting into…
We present a construction of self-dual Yang-Mills connections on the Taub-NUT space. We illustrate it by finding explicit expressions for all SU(2) instantons of instanton number one and generic monodromy at infinity.
We study dyonic instantons in (4+1) dimensional Yang-Mills theory. Especially we consider the most general two instanton solution given by the Jackiw-Nohl-Rebbi ansatz and find its dyonic version. By exploring the zeros of the Higgs field,…
We review the construction known as the Nahm transform in a generalized context, which includes all the examples of this construction already described in the literature. The Nahm transform for translation invariant instantons on $\real^4$…

The explicit multi-instanton solutions by 'tHooft and Jackiw, Nohl & Rebbi are generalized to curvilinear coordinates. The idea is that a gauge transformation can notably simplify the expressions obtained after the change of variables. The…

Periodic instantons, also called calorons, are the BPS solutions to the pure Yang-Mills theories on $\mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$. It is known that the calorons interconnect with the instantons and the BPS monopoles as the ratio of their size to…
