An existence proof for the gravitating BPS monopole

Abstract

We prove the existence of the gravitating BPS monopole in Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs (EYMH) theory. Existence is established using a Newtonian perturbation argument which shows that a Yang-Mills-Higgs BPS monopole solution can be be continued analytically in powers of 1/c21/c^{2} to an EYMH solution.
