A Nahm transform for rotating calorons
Josh Cork, Derek Harland
Rotating calorons were introduced in the context of rotating quark-gluon plasmas. They are anti-self-dual gauge fields on that are invariant under a glide rotation.…
Finkelstein-Rubinstein constraints from ADHM data and rational maps
Josh Cork, Derek Harland
We establish simple formulae for computing Finkelstein-Rubinstein signs for Skyrme fields generated in two ways: from instanton ADHM data, and from rational maps. This may be used…
Geometry of Gauged Skyrmions
Josh Cork, Derek Harland
A work of Manton showed how skymions may be viewed as maps between riemannian manifolds minimising an energy functional, with topologically non-trivial global minimisers given prec…
A model for gauged skyrmions with low binding energies
Josh Cork, Derek Harland, Thomas Winyard
We consider gauged skyrmions with boundary conditions which break the gauge from to in models derived from Yang-Mills theory. After deriving genera…
A low-energy limit of Yang-Mills theory on de Sitter space
Josh Cork, Emine Şeyma Kutluk, Olaf Lechtenfeld +1
We consider Yang--Mills theory with a compact structure group on four-dimensional de Sitter space dS. Using conformal invariance, we transform the theory from dS to the…
Skyrmions from calorons
Josh Cork
We derive a one-parameter family of gauged Skyrme models from Yang-Mills theory on , in which skyrmions are well-approximated by calorons and monopoles. In p…
Symmetric calorons and the rotation map
Josh Cork
We study calorons, also known as periodic instantons, and consider invariance under isometries of coupled with a non-spatial isometry called the rot…
