Existence of spinning solitons in field theory
Mikhail S. Volkov
The first results, both positive and negative, recently obtained in the area of constructing stationary spinning solitons in flat Minkowski space in 3+1 dimensions are discussed.
Computation of the winding number diffusion rate due to the cosmological sphaleron
Mikhail S. Volkov
A detailed quantitative analysis of the transition process mediated by a sphaleron type non-Abelian gauge field configuration in a static Einstein universe is carried out. By exami…
Odd-Parity Negative Modes of Einstein-Yang-Mills Black Holes and Sphalerons
Mikhail S. Volkov, Dmitri D. Gal'tsov
An analytical proof of the existence of negative modes in the odd--parity perturbation sector is given for all known non-abelian Einstein--Yang--Mills black holes. The significance…
Einstein-Yang-Mills Sphalerons and Level Crossing
Mikhail S. Volkov
The fermion energy spectrum along paths which connect topologically distinct vacua in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory passing through the gravitational sphaleron equilibrium solutio…
