Quantisation of monopoles with non-abelian magnetic charge
Magnetic monopoles in Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with a non-abelian unbroken gauge group are classified by holomorphic charges in addition to the topological charges familiar from the abelian case. As a result the moduli spaces of monopoles of given topological charge are stratified according to the holomorphic charges. Here the physical consequences of the stratification are explored in the case ...
متن کاملMassive and massless monopoles with non-Abelian magnetic charges.
We use the multimonopole moduli space as a tool for studying the properties of BPS monopoles carrying nonabelian magnetic charges. For configurations whose total magnetic charge is purely abelian, the moduli space for nonabelian breaking can be obtained as a smooth limit of that for a purely abelian breaking. As the asymptotic Higgs field is varied toward one of the special values for which the...
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.
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 Monopoles, Vortices and Confinement
Three closely related issues will be discussed. Magnetic quarks having non-Abelian charges have been found recently to appear as the dominant infrared degrees of freedom in some vacua of softly broken N = 2 supersymmetric QCD with SU(nc) gauge group. Their condensation upon N = 1 perturbation causes confinement and dynamical symmetry breaking. We argue that these magnetic quarks can be naturall...
