Perturbative construction of self - dual configurations on the torus
نویسنده
چکیده
We develop a perturbative expansion which allows the construction of nonabelian self-dual SU(2) Yang-Mills field configurations on the four-dimensional torus with topological charge 1/2. The expansion is performed around the constant field strength abelian solutions found by ’t Hooft. Next to leading order calculations are compared with numerical results obtained with lattice gauge theory techniques.

The purpose of this paper is to briefly review the progress made during the last year in the investigation of SU(N) self-dual Yang-Mills (YM) configurations on the 4-dimensional torus (T ). It is well-known that there is a procedure (the ADHM construction [1]) to construct all self-dual configurations on the sphere. Conversely, for the torus case not even the simplest fully non-abelian solution...
متن کاملNahm transformation on the lattice ∗
The Nahm transformation [1,2] is a powerful mathematical tool to study self-dual Yang-Mills fields living on a 4-torus. It can furthermore be extended to the more general case of fields on T 4−n ×Rn, n = 0, . . . , 4 . In particular, when n = 4 the ADHM construction is recovered within this context. Some of the problems in which the Nahm transformation has succeeded are the construction of inst...
متن کاملADHM Construction of Instantons on the Torus
We apply the ADHM instanton construction to SU(2) gauge theory on Tn × R 4−n for n = 1, 2, 3, 4. To do this we regard instantons on Tn × R 4−n as periodic (modulo gauge transformations) instantons on R . Since the R 4 topological charge of such instantons is infinite the ADHM algebra takes place on an infinite dimensional linear space. The ADHM matrix M is related to a Weyl operator (with a sel...

Vortex configurations in the two-dimensional torus are considered in noncommu-tative space. We analyze the BPS equations of the Abelian Higgs model. Numerical solutions are constructed for the self-dual and anti-self dual cases by extending an algorithm originally developed for ordinary commutative space. We work within the Fock space approach to noncommutative theories and the Moyal-Weyl conne...
متن کاملSelf-dual metrics on toric 4-manifolds: Extending the Joyce construction
Toric geometry studies manifolds M2n acted on effectively by a torus of half their dimension, T . Joyce shows that for such a 4-manifold sufficient conditions for a conformal class of metrics on the free part of the action to be self-dual can be given by a pair of linear ODEs and gives criteria for a metric in this class to extend to the degenerate orbits. Joyce and Calderbank-Pedersen use this...
