Geometric Langlands And The Equations Of Nahm And Bogomolny
نویسندگان
چکیده
Geometric Langlands duality relates a representation of a simple Lie group G to the cohomology of a certain moduli space associated with the dual group G. In this correspondence, a principal SL2 subgroup of G makes an unexpected appearance. Why this happens can be explained using gauge theory, as we will see in this article, with the help of the equations of Nahm and Bogomolny. (Based on a lecture at Geometry and Physics: Atiyah 80, Edinburgh, April 2009.)

Geometric Langlands duality and the equations of Nahm and Bogomolny
This paper is intended as an introduction to the gauge theory approach [15] to the geometric Langlands correspondence. But, rather than a conventional overview, which I have attempted elsewhere [25, 26], the focus here is on understanding a very particular result, which I learned of from [13]. (Another standard reference on closely related matters is [17].) This introduction is devoted to descr...
متن کاملFinite-gap Integration of the Su(2) Bogomolny Equations
The ADHMN construction of magnetic monopoles is given in terms of the (normalizable) solutions of an associated Weyl equation. We focus here on solving this equation directly by algebro-geometric means. The (adjoint) Weyl equation is solved using an ansätz of Nahm in terms of Baker-Akhiezer functions. The solution of Nahm’s equation is not directly used in our development.
متن کاملThe Topological B-model on a Mini-Supertwistor Space and Supersymmetric Bogomolny Monopole Equations
In the recent paper hep-th/0502076, it was argued that the open topological Bmodel whose target space is a complex (2|4)-dimensional mini-supertwistor space with D3and D1-branes added corresponds to a super Yang-Mills theory in three dimensions. Without the D1-branes, this topological B-model is equivalent to a dimensionally reduced holomorphic Chern-Simons theory. Identifying the latter with a...
متن کاملOn tensor product $L$-functions and Langlands functoriality
In the spirit of the Langlands proposal on Beyond Endoscopy we discuss the explicit relation between the Langlands functorial transfers and automorphic $L$-functions. It is well-known that the poles of the $L$-functions have deep impact to the Langlands functoriality. Our discussion also includes the meaning of the central value of the tensor product $L$-functions in terms of the Langl...
متن کاملFrom spatially periodic instantons to singular monopoles
The main result is a computation of the Nahm transform of a SU(2)-instanton over R× T , called spatially-periodic instanton. It is a singular monopole over T , a solution to the Bogomolny equation, whose rank is computed and behavior at the singular points is described.
