New Chern-Simons densities in both odd and even dimensions
Eugen Radu, Tigran Tchrakian
After reviewing briefly the dimensional reduction of Chern--Pontryagin densities, we define new Chern--Simons densities expressed in terms of Yang-Mills and Higgs fields. These are…

Dirac-Yang monopoles and their regular counterparts
Tigran Tchrakian
The Dirac-Yang monopoles are singular Yang--Mills field configurations in all Euclidean dimensions. The regular counterpart of the Dirac monopole in D=3 is the t Hooft-Polyakov mon…

Winding number versus Chern--Pontryagin charge
Tigran Tchrakian
In the usual d dimensional SO(d) gauged Higgs models with -component Higgs fields, the 'energies' of the topologically stable solitons are bounded from below by the Chern-Pontry…
