Solutions of the Einstein-Dirac and Seiberg-Witten Monopole Equations

We consider general relativity with cosmological constant minimally coupled to the electromagnetic field and assume that the four-dimensional space-time manifold is a warped product of two surfaces with Lorentzian and Euclidean signature metrics. Field equations imply that at least one of the surfaces must be of constant curvature leading to the symmetry of the metric (``spontaneous symmetry emergence''). We classify all global solutions in the case when the Lorentzian surfac...

We study generalisations to the structure groups U(n) of the familiar (abelian) Seiberg-Witten monopole equations on a four-manifold $X$ and their moduli spaces. For $n=1$ one obtains the classical monopole equations. For $n > 1$ our results indicate that there should not be any non-trivial gauge-theoretical invariants which are obtained by the scheme `evaluation of cohomology classes on the fundamental cycle of the moduli space'. For, if $b_2^+$ is positive the moduli space ...

The classical Seiberg-Witten equation in dimesion three and four can be generalized to an unifying framework, the generalized Seiberg-Witten (GSW) equation. It includes the anti-self dulaity (ASD) equation, the $\mathrm U(n)$-monopole equation, the Seiberg-Witten equation with multiple spinors, the Vafa-Witten equation, the complex ASD equation. In this article, we prove some vanishing results for solutions (called GSW monopoles and GSW Bogomolny monopoles, respectively) of t...

We consider general relativity with cosmological constant minimally coupled to electromagnetic field and assume that four-dimensional space-time manifold is the warped product of two surfaces with Lorentzian and Euclidean signature metrics. Einstein's equations imply that at least one of the surfaces must be of constant curvature. It means that the symmetry of the metric arises as the consequence of equations of motion (`spontaneous symmetry emergence'). We give classificatio...

By analysing the work of Campolattaro we argue that the second Seiberg-Witten equation over the Spin^c_4 manifold, i.e., F^+_{ij}=< M,S_ij M >, is the generalization of the Campolattaro's description of the electromagnetic field tensor F^{\mu\nu} in the bilinear form F^{\mu\nu}=\bar{\Psi} S^{\mu\nu}\Psi. It turns out that the Seiberg-Witten equations (also the perturbed Seiberg-Witten equations) can be well understood from this point of view. We suggest that the second Seiber...

The purpose of this paper is: 1) to explain the Seiberg-Witten invariants, 2) to show that - on a K\"ahler surface - the solutions of the monopole equations can be interpreted as algebraic objects, namely effective divisors, 3) to give - as an application - a short selfcontained proof for the fact that rationality of complex surfaces is a ${\cal C}^{\infty}$-property.

Several exact, cylindrically symmetric solutions to Einstein's vacuum equations are given. These solutions were found using the connection between Yang-Mills theory and general relativity. Taking known solutions of the Yang-Mills equations (e.g. the topological BPS monopole solutions) it is possible to construct exact solutions to the general relativistic field equations. Although the general relativistic solutions were found starting from known solutions of Yang-Mills theory...

We study the Yang-Mills-Higgs system within the framework of general relativity. In the static situation, using Bogomol'nyi type analysis, we derive a positive-definite energy functional which has a lower bound. Specializing to the gauge group $SU(2)$ and the t'Hooft-Polyakov ansatz for the gauge and Higgs fields, we seek static, spherically symmetric solutions to the coupled system of equations in both the isotropic and standard coordinate systems. In both cases, in the spon...

A continuum of monopole, dyon and black hole solutions exist in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Their structure is studied in detail. The solutions are classified by non-Abelian electric and magnetic charges and the ADM mass. The stability of the solutions which have no node in non-Abelian magnetic fields is established. There exist critical spacetime solutions which terminate at a finite radius, and have universal behavior. The moduli s...

We twist the monopole equations of Seiberg and Witten and show how these equations are realized in topological Yang-Mills theory. A Floer derivative and a Morse functional are found and are used to construct a unitary transformation between the usual Floer cohomologies and those of the monopole equations. Furthermore, these equations are seen to reside in the vanishing self-dual curvature condition of an $OSp(1|2)$-bundle. Alternatively, they may be seen arising directly from...
