Finite Action Yang-mills Solutions on the Group Manifold

چکیده
We demonstrate that the left (and right) invariant Maurer-Cartan forms for any semi-simple Lie group enable one to construct solutions of the Yang-Mills equations on the group manifold equipped with the natural Cartan-Killing metric. For the unitary unimodular groups the Yang-Mills action integral is finite for such solutions. This is explicitly exhibited for the case of SU(3).

Instantons and Yang-Mills Flows on Coset Spaces
We consider the Yang-Mills flow equations on a reductive coset space G/H and the Yang-Mills equations on the manifold R×G/H . On nonsymmetric coset spaces G/H one can introduce geometric fluxes identified with the torsion of the spin connection. The condition of G-equivariance imposed on the gauge fields reduces the Yang-Mills equations to φ-kink equations on R. Depending on the boundary condit...
متن کاملYang-Mills Instantons and Dyons on Group Manifolds
We consider Euclidean SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on the space G×R, where G is a compact semisimple Lie group, and introduce first-order BPS-type equations which imply the full YangMills equations. For gauge fields invariant under the adjoint G-action these BPS equations reduce to first-order matrix equations, to which we give instanton solutions. In the case of G = SU(2) ∼= S, our matrix equations...
متن کاملSolving coupled Dyson–Schwinger equations on a compact manifold
A generic numerical method to solve a coupled set of Dyson–Schwinger equations on a compact manifold is presented. It is exemplified employing a truncated, closed set of equations for the gluon and ghost propagators in SU(N) Yang–Mills theory on a four-torus at zero and nonzero temperatures. When compared to continuum solutions at zero temperature sizeable modifications due to the finite volume...
متن کاملSolutions to pure Yang–Mills theory on four-dimensional de Sitter space
We consider pure SU(2) Yang–Mills theory on four-dimensional de Sitter space dS4 and construct a smooth and spatially homogeneous magnetic solution to the Yang–Mills equations. Slicing dS4 as R×S3, via an SU(2)-equivariant ansatz we reduce the Yang–Mills equations to ordinary matrix differential equations and further to Newtonian dynamics in a double-well potential. Its local maximum yields a Y...
متن کاملEinstein-Yang-Mills solutions in higher dimensional de Sitter spacetime
We consider particle-like and black holes solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system with positive cosmological constant in d > 4 spacetime dimensions. These configurations are spherically symmetric and present a cosmological horizon for a finite value of the radial coordinate, approaching asymptotically the de Sitter background. In the usual Yang–Mills case we find that the mass of these solu...
