A ladder of topologically non-trivial non-BPS states
Daniele Dorigoni, Norman A. Rink
We consider a simple quiver gauge theory with gauge group U(r1) x U(r2) and a Higgs field in the bi-fundamental representation. The back-ground for this theory is a compact Kähler…
Non-abelian vortices on CP^1 and Grassmannians
Norman A. Rink
Many properties of the moduli space of abelian vortices on a compact Riemann surface are known. For non-abelian vortices the moduli space is less well understood. Here we consider…
Geometry and Energy of Non-abelian Vortices
Nicholas S. Manton, Norman A. Rink
We study pure Yang--Mills theory on , where is a compact Riemann surface, and invariance is assumed under rotations of . It is well known that the self-dualit…
Vortices on Hyperbolic Surfaces
Nicholas S. Manton, Norman A. Rink
It is shown that abelian Higgs vortices on a hyperbolic surface can be constructed geometrically from holomorphic maps , where is also a hyperbolic surface. The…
