The Asymptotic Structure of Monopoles in R^3, Calorons, and ALF Instantons
arXiv:2510.15834
Abstract
We study the asymptotic structure of instantons on multi-centered Taub-NUT manifolds, calorons, and monopoles on R^3. We show that, without any assumptions on symmetry breaking, these instantons and monopoles asymptotically decompose as a sum of U(1) instantons and monopoles, respectively.
