Axisymmetric non-abelian BPS monopoles from G2 metrics
Exact SU(2)×U(1) self-gravitating BPS global monopoles in four dimensions are constructed by dimensional reduction of eight dimensional metrics with G2 holonomy asymptotic to cones over S × S. The solutions carry two topological charges in an interesting way. They are generically axially but not spherically symmetric. This last fact is related to the isometries and asymptotic topology of the G2...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Berry Phases and BPS Monopoles
We study a simple quantum mechanical model of a spinning particle moving on a sphere in the presence of a magnetic field. The system has two ground states. As the magnetic field is varied, the ground states mix through a non-Abelian Berry phase. We show that this Berry phase is the path ordered exponential of the smooth SU(2) ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole. We further show that, by adjusting a pote...
متن کاملNon-Abelian BPS Monopoles in N=4 Gauged Supergravity
We study static, spherically symmetric, and purely magnetic solutions of SU(2) × SU(2) gauge supergravity in four dimensions. A systematic analysis of the supersymmetry conditions reveals solutions which preserve 1/8 of the supersymmetries and are characterized by a BPS-monopole-type gauge field and a globally hyperbolic, everywhere regular geometry. These present the first known example of non...
متن کاملBps Monopoles
We review classical BPS monopoles, their moduli spaces, twistor descriptions and dynamics. Particular emphasis is placed upon symmetric monopoles, where recent progress has been made. Some remarks on the role of monopoles in S-duality and Seiberg-Witten theory are also made.
متن کاملNon-Linear / Non-Commutative Non-Abelian Monopoles
Using recently proposed non-linearly realized supersymmetry in non-Abelian gauge theory corrected to O(α′), we derive the non-linear BPS equations in the background B-field for the U(2) monopoles and instantons. We show that these non-Abelian non-linear BPS equations coincide with the non-commutative anti-self-dual equations via the Seiberg-Witten map.
