Gravitating Yang-Mills vortices in 4+1 spacetime dimensions

چکیده

The coupling to gravity in D=5 spacetime dimensions is considered for the particle-like and vortex-type solutions obtained by uplifting the D=4 YangMills instantons and D=3 Yang-Mills-Higgs monopoles. It turns out that the particles become completely destroyed by gravity, while the vortices admit a rich spectrum of gravitating generalizations. Such vortex defects may be interesting in view of the AdS/CFT correspondence or in the context of the brane world scenario.

Gravitating Yang-Mills dyon vortices in 4+1 spacetime dimensions

We consider vortex-type solutions in d = 5 dimensions of the Einstein gravity coupled to a nonabelian SU(2) field posessing a nonzero electric part. After the dimensional reduction, this corresponds to a d = 4 Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs-U(1)-dilaton model. A general axially symmetric ansatz is presented, and the properties of the spherically symmetric solutions are analysed.

Gravitating Non-abelian Solitons and Hairy Black Holes in Higher Dimensions

This is a short review of classical solutions with gravitating Yang-Mills fields in D > 4 spacetime dimensions. The simplest SO(4) symmetric particlelike and SO(3) symmetric vortex type solutions in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in D = 5 are considered, and their various generalizations with or without an event horizon, for other symmetries, in more general theories, and also in D > 5 are desc...

Gravitating BPS Monopoles in all d = 4 p Spacetime Dimensions

We have constructed, numerically, both regular and black hole static solutions to the simplest possible gravitating Yang-Mills–Higgs (YMH) in 4p spacetime dimensions. The YMH systems consist of 2p−th power curvature fields without a Higgs potential. The gravitational systems consist of the ‘Ricci scalar’ of the p−th power of the Riemann curvature. In 4 spacetime dimensions this is the usual Ein...

The classical solutions to higher dimensional Yang–Mills (YM) systems, which are integral parts of higher dimensional Einstein–YM (EYM) systems, are studied. These are the gravity decoupling limits of the fully gravitating EYM solutions. In odd spacetime dimensions, depending on the choice of gauge group, these are either topologically stable or unstable. Both cases are analysed, the latter num...

We construct static, asymptotically flat solutions of SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in 4 + 1 dimensions, subject to bi-azimuthal symmetry. Both particle-like and black hole solutions are considered for two different sets of boundary conditions in the Yang–Mills sector, corresponding to multisolitons and soliton-antisoliton pairs. For gravitating multi-soliton solutions, we find that their ma...
