Internal symmetries in Kaluza-Klein models
Joao Baptista
The usual approach to Kaluza-Klein considers a spacetime of the form and identifies the isometry group of the internal vacuum metric, , with the gauge group i…
Higher-dimensional routes to the Standard Model fermions
Joao Baptista
In the old spirit of Kaluza-Klein, we consider a spacetime of the form , where is the Lie group equipped with a left-invariant metric that is…
Higher-dimensional routes to the Standard Model bosons
Joao Baptista
In the old spirit of Kaluza-Klein, we consider a spacetime of the form , where is the Lie group equipped with a left-invariant metric that is…
Vortices as degenerate metrics
J. M. Baptista
We note that the Bogomolny equation for abelian vortices is precisely the condition for invariance of the Hermitian-Einstein equation under a degenerate conformal transformation. T…
Moduli Spaces of Abelian Vortices on Kahler Manifolds
J. M. Baptista
We consider the self-dual vortex equations on a positive line bundle L --> M over a compact Kaehler manifold of arbitrary dimension. When M is simply connected, the moduli space of…
Abelian Vortices with Singularities
J. M. Baptista, Indranil Biswas
Let L --> X be a complex line bundle over a compact connected Riemann surface. We consider the abelian vortex equations on L when the metric on the surface has finitely many point…
