We study Bogomolny equations on $R^2\times S^1$. Although they do not admit nontrivial finite-energy solutions, we show that there are interesting infinite-energy solutions with Higgs field growing logarithmically at infinity. We call these…
We study solutions of the Bogomolny equation on R^2\times S^1$ with prescribed singularities. We show that Nahm transform establishes a one-to-one correspondence between such solutions and solutions of the Hitchin equations on a punctured…
We study doubly-periodic monopoles, also called monopole walls, determining their spectral data and computing the dimensions of their moduli spaces. Using spectral data we identify the moduli, and compare our results with a perturbative…
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…
Magnetic monopoles in hyperbolic space are in correspondence with certain algebraic curves in mini-twistor space, known as spectral curves, which are in turn in correspondence with rational maps between Riemann spheres. Hyperbolic monopoles…
The large-N limit of the two-dimensional U$(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on an arbitrary orientable compact surface with boundaries is studied. It is shown that if the holonomies of the gauge field on boundaries are near the identity, then the…
We study the Yang-Mills-Higgs system within the framework of general relativity. In the static situation, using Bogomol'nyi type analysis, we derive a positive-definite energy functional which has a lower bound. Specializing to the gauge…
This paper deals with static BPS monopoles in three dimensions which are periodic either in one direction (monopole chains) or two directions (monopole sheets). The Nahm construction of the simplest monopole chain is implemented…
We present explicit expressions for the fields of a charge one BPS monopole with two Dirac singularities. These are solutions of the nonlinear Bogomolny equations with the gauge group U(2) or SO(3). We derive these expressions by applying…
BPS monopoles which are periodic in one of the spatial directions correspond, via a generalized Nahm transform, to solutions of the Hitchin equations on a cylinder. A one-parameter family of solutions of these equations, representing a…
We derive, for $N\is2$ super-Yang--Mills with gauge group $SU(2)$ and massless matter, the supersymmetric quantum mechanical models describing the time evolution of multi-monopole configurations in the low energy approximation. This is a…
We explore the role played by the spectral curves associated with Higgs pairs in the context of the Nahm transform of doubly-periodic instantons defined in "Construction of doubly-periodic instantons" (math.DG/9909069) and "Nahm transform…
We discuss $SU(2)$ Bogomolny monopoles of arbitrary charge $k$ invariant under various symmetry groups. The analysis is largely in terms of the spectral curves, the rational maps, and the Nahm equations associated with monopoles. We…
We classify all possible charge-3 monopole spectral curves with non-trivial automorphism group and within these identify those with elliptic quotients. By focussing on elliptic quotients the transcendental constraints for a monopole…
The moduli spaces of hyperbolic monopoles are naturally fibred by the monopole mass, and this leads to a nontrivial mass dependence of the holomorphic data (spectral curves, rational maps, holomorphic spheres) associated to hyperbolic…
We consider $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills on a circle (cylindrical space-time) and quantize the eigenvalues of the holonomy. In this way the Mandelstam identities associated with the holonomy are trivially solved. Furthermore we indicate that there…
The large-N limit of the two-dimensional non-local U$(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on an orientable and non-orientable surface with boundaries is studied. For the case which the holonomies of the gauge group on the boundaries are near the…
BPS monopoles on $\mathbb{R}^2\times S^1$ correspond, via the generalized Nahm transform, to certain solutions of the Hitchin equations on the cylinder $\mathbb{R}\times S^1$. The moduli space M of two monopoles with their centre-of-mass…
The moduli space of centred Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommmerfield 2-monopole fields is a 4-dimensional manifold M with a natural metric, and the geodesics on M correspond to slow-motion monopole dynamics. The best-known case is that of monopoles on…
We show here that from the metric of the manifold $M^0_2$ , i.e., the reduced moduli of SU(2) 2-monopoles in Yang-Mills-Higgs theory, one can recover the respective moduli of spectral curves using the method Gauss-Manin connection in…
