Non-commutative differential geometry allows a scalar field to be regarded as a gauge connection, albeit on a discrete space. We explain how the underlying gauge principle corresponds to the independence of physics on the choice of vacuum…
The relation between two--dimensional integrable systems and four--dimen\-sional self--dual Yang--Mills equations is considered. Within the twistor description and the zero--curvature representation a method is given to associate self--dual…
We study pure Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma\times S^2$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact Riemann surface, and invariance is assumed under rotations of $S^2$. It is well known that the self-duality equations in this set-up reduce to vortex…
This letter describes a completely-integrable system of Yang-Mills-Higgs equations which generalizes the Hitchin equations on a Riemann surface to arbitrary k-dimensional complex manifolds. The system arises as a dimensional reduction of a…
We examine whether the Painlev\'e property is a necessary condition for the integrability of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We show that for a large class of linearisable systems this is not the case. In the discrete domain, we…
Integrability of the (2+1)-dimensional Gauss-Codazzi-Mainardi equation is considered. It is shown that this equation is the particular cases of the Yang-Mills-Higgs-Bogomolny and self-dual Yang-Mills equations.
A particular dimensional reduction of SU(2N) Yang--Mills theory on $\Sigma \times S^2$, with $\Sigma$ a Riemann surface, yields an $S(U(N) \times U(N))$ gauge theory on $\Sigma$, with a matrix Higgs field. The SU(2N) self-dual Yang--Mills…
In recent years it has been shown that many, and possibly all, integrable systems can be obtained by dimensional reduction of self-dual Yang-Mills. I show how the integrable systems obtained this way naturally inherit bihamiltonian…
We consider the Yang-Mills instanton equations on the four-dimensional manifold S^2xSigma, where Sigma is a compact Riemann surface of genus g>1 or its covering space H^2=SU(1,1)/U(1). Introducing a natural ansatz for the gauge potential,…
This paper describes an integrable Yang-Mills-Higgs system on (2+1)-dimensional de Sitter space-time. It is the curved-space-time analogue of the Bogomolnyi equations for monopoles on R^3. A number of solutions, of various types, are…
The first half of the thesis concerns Abelian vortices and Yang-Mills (YM) theory. It is proved that the 5 types of vortices recently proposed by Manton are symmetry reductions of (A)SDYM equations with suitable gauge groups and symmetry…
We calculate the partition function $Z(t)$ and the asymptotic integrated level density $N(E)$ for Yang-Mills-Higgs Quantum Mechanics for two and three dimensions ($n = 2, 3$). Due to the infinite volume of the phase space $\Gamma$ on energy…
We explore maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with walls of impurities respecting half of the supersymmetries. The walls carry fundamental or bifundamental matter multiplets. We employ three-dimensional N=2 superspace language to…
Using the Painleve analysis preceded by appropriate transformations of nonlinear systems under investigation, we discover two new cases in which the Pietrzyk-Kanattsikov-Bandelow vector short pulse equation must be integrable due to the…
Regular and black-hole solutions of the spontaneously broken Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with nonminimal coupling to gravity are shown to exist. The main characteristics of the solutions are presented and differences with respect to…
Quadratic systems generated using Yang-Baxter equations are integrable in a sense, but we display a deterioration in the possession of the Painlev\'e property as the number of equations in each `integrable system' increases. Certain…
We prove that one system of coupled KdV equations, claimed by Hirota, Hu, and Tang to pass the Painleve test for integrability, actually fails the test at the highest resonance of the generic branch and therefore must be non-integrable.
We consider U(n+1) Yang-Mills instantons on the space \Sigma\times S^2, where \Sigma is a compact Riemann surface of genus g. Using an SU(2)-equivariant dimensional reduction, we show that the U(n+1) instanton equations on \Sigma\times S^2…
Self-duality is a very important concept in the study and applications of topological solitons in many areas of Physics. The rich mathematical structures underlying it lead, in many cases, to the development of exact and non-perturbative…
We show that the chiral partition function of two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory on the sphere can be mapped to the partition function of the homogeneous six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions in the ferroelectric phase. A…
