We investigate the properties of thermal abelian magnetic monopoles in the high temperature phase of Yang--Mills theories, following a recent proposal for their identification on lattice configurations. The study is done for SU(2) pure…
We consider a U(2) Yang-Mills theory on M x S_F^2 where M is a Riemannian manifold and S_F^2 is the fuzzy sphere. Using essentially the representation theory of SU(2) we determine the most general SU(2)-equivariant gauge field on M x S_F^2.…
We discuss homogeneous and isotropic cosmological models driven by SU(2) gauge fields in the framework of Einstein gravity. There exists a Yang-Mills field configuration, parametrized by a single scalar function, which consists of parallel…
We construct a class of effective extensions of the Standard Model that support finite-mass Cho-Maison magnetic monopole in the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) limit. We present an example of exact analytic monopole solution and derive…
We identify a local, gauge-invariant mechanism that generates a finite spectral scale in pure SU(3) Yang--Mills theory on a punctured three-ball. Fixing a $\mathbb{Z}_3$ center sector isolates a single gauge-invariant holonomy angle whose…
The possible transition of large mass magnetic monopole solutions to monopole black hole solutions in Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) coupled to the low energy effective theory of superstring with only…
Monopoles in topologically massive gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions with a Chern-Simon mass term have been studied by Pisarski some years ago. He investigated the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model with an additional Chern-Simon mass term in the…
We discuss the Montonen-Olive electric-magnetic duality for the BPS massless monopole clouds in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with non-Abelian unbroken gauge symmetries. We argue that these low energy non-Abelian clouds can be…
We present exact solutions to Cho-Maison magnetic monopole in a family of effective electroweak models that have a Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) limit. We find that the lower bound to the mass of the magnetic monopole is $M \geq 2\pi…
The model of nonperturbative vacuum in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory coupled to a nonlinear spinor field is suggested. By analogy with Abelian magnetic monopole dominance in quantum chromodynamics, it is assumed that the dominant contribution to…
We would like to show the existence of finite energy SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs particles of one-half topological charge. The magnetic fields of these solutions at spatial infinity correspond to the magnetic field of a positive one-half…
We study the quark confinement problem in 2+1 dimensional pure Yang-Mills theory using euclidean instanton methods. The instantons are regularized and dressed Wu-Yang monopoles. The dressing of a monopole is due to the mean field of the…
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…
Quantum corrections to the magnetic central charge of the monopole in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are free from the anomalous contributions that were crucial for BPS saturation of the two-dimensional supersymmetric kink and the N=2…
In this paper, making use of the 't Hooft-Polyakov-Julia-Zee ansatz for the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs gauge field theory, we present the straightforward generalization of the Bogomoln'yi equations and its several consequences. Particularly,…
We propose a novel type of color magnetic condensation originating from magnetic monopoles so that it provides the mass of off-diagonal gluons in the Yang-Mills theory. This dynamical mass generation enables us to explain the infrared…
We review the attempt to construct massless gauge field theories in Minkowski spacetime that go under the name of HS-YM. We present their actions and their symmetries. We motivate their gravitational interpretation. In particular we show…
The quantum Yang-Mills theory, describing a system of fields with non-dual (chromo-electric g) and dual (chromo-magnetic \tilde g) charges and revealing the generalized dual symmetry, is developed by analogy with the Zwanziger formalism in…
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 present a systematic approach to the linearised Yang-Mills-Higgs equations in the background of a 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole and use it to unify and extend previous studies of their spectral properties. We show that a quaternionic…
