We study the BPS states of the M-fivebrane which correspond to monopoles of N=2 SU(2) gauge theory. Far away from the centres of the monopoles these states may be viewed as solitons in the Seiberg-Witten effective action. It is argued that…
We study solutions to Nahm's equations with continuous symmetries and, under certain (mild) hypotheses, we classify the corresponding Ans\"atze. Using our classification, we construct novel Nahm data, and prescribe methods for generating…
We present a q-analogue of Nahm's formalism for the BPS monopole, which gives self-dual gauge fields with a deformation parameter q. The theory of the basic hypergeometric series is used in our formalism. In the limit q -> 1 the gauge…
Recently, it was shown that half BPS Supergravity solution of theories with SU(2$|$4) symmetry algebra is given uniformly by determining a single function which obeys three dimensional continuous Toda equation. In this paper, we study the…
We study SU(2) BPS monopoles with spectral curves of the form $\eta^3+\chi(\zeta^6+b \zeta^3-1)=0$. Previous work has has established a countable family of solutions to Hitchin's constraint that $L^2$ was trivial on such a curve. Here we…
We produce finite energy BPS monopoles with arbitrary prescribed symmetry breaking from a new class of Nahm data.
We show that noncommutative electromagnetism and Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) theory with scalar fields are SL(2,R) self-dual when noncommutativity is light-like and we are in the slowly varying field approximation. This follows from SL(2,R)…
We examine the Toda frame formulation of the SO(3)-invariant hyper-Kahler 4-metrics, namely Eguchi-Hanson, Taub-NUT and Atiyah-Hitchin. Our method exploits the presence of a rotational SO(2) isometry, leading to the explicit construction of…
Recently K. Lee, E.J. Weinberg and P. Yi in CU-TP-739, hep-th/9602167, calculated the asymptotic metric on the moduli space of (1, 1, ..., 1) BPS monopoles and conjectured that it was globally exact. I lend support to this conjecture by…
We derive the central charge and BPS equations from the low-energy effective action for N=2 SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in the Coulomb phase, using a systematic, canonical procedure. We then obtain solutions for monopole and dyon BPS states,…
We study a class of exact supersymmetric solutions of type IIB Supergravity. They have an SO(4) x SU(2) x U(1) isometry and preserve generically 4 of the 32 supersymmetries of the theory. Asymptotically AdS_5 x S^5 solutions in this class…
For N>2 we present static monopole solutions of the second order SU(N) BPS Yang-Mills-Higgs equations which are not solutions of the first order Bogomolny equations. These spherically symmetric solutions may be interpreted as monopole…
We study static, spherically symmetric, and purely magnetic solutions of SU(2) $\times$ SU(2) gauge supergravity in four dimensions. A systematic analysis of the supersymmetry conditions reveals solutions which preserve 1/8 of the…
According to the proposal of Hanany and Witten, Coulomb branches of N=4 SU(n) gauge theories in three dimensions are isometric to moduli spaces of BPS monopoles. We generalize this proposal to gauge theories with matter, which allows us to…
We consider the N=1* supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory and demonstrate that the Z_2 vortices in this theory acquire orientational zero modes, associated with the rotation of magnetic flux inside SU(2) group, and turn into the non-Abelian…
We consider axially symmetric solutions of SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory in globally AdS spacetime and a fixed Schwarzschild-AdS black hole background. The solutions are characterized by two integers $(m,n)$ where $m$ is related to the…
It is known that hyperbolic monopoles, with a particular value of the curvature, can be obtained from ADHM instanton data that satisfies additional constraints. Here this data is reformulated in terms of a triplet of real matrices that…
Non-Abelian BPS vortex solutions are constructed in N=2 theories with gauge groups SO(N)\times U(1). The model has N_f flavors of chiral multiplets in the vector representation of SO(N), and we consider a color-flavor locked vacuum in which…
Spherical clusters of SU(2) BPS monopoles are investigated here. A large class of monopole solutions is found using an abelian approximation, where the clusters are spherically symmetric, although exact solutions cannot have this symmetry…
We revisit the non-linear BPS equation: the Dirac monopole of the Born-Infeld theory in the B-field background. The rotation used in our previous papers to discuss the scalar field by transforming the BPS equation into a linear one is…
