Gravitating Yang–Mills fields in all dimensions

چکیده
A classification of gravitating Yang–Mills systems in all dimensions is presented. These systems are set up so that they support finite energy solutions. Both regular and black hole solutions are considered, the former being the limit of the latter for vanishing event horizon radius. Special attention is paid to systems necessarily involving higher order Yang–Mills curvature terms, along with the option of incorporating higher order terms in the Riemann curvature. The scope here is restricted to Einstein systems, with or without cosmological constant, and the Yang–Mills(–Higgs) systems.

Gravitating Non-abelian Solitons and Hairy Black Holes in Higher Dimensions
This is a short review of classical solutions with gravitating Yang-Mills fields in D > 4 spacetime dimensions. The simplest SO(4) symmetric particlelike and SO(3) symmetric vortex type solutions in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in D = 5 are considered, and their various generalizations with or without an event horizon, for other symmetries, in more general theories, and also in D > 5 are desc...
متن کاملGravitating BPS Monopoles in all d = 4 p Spacetime Dimensions
We have constructed, numerically, both regular and black hole static solutions to the simplest possible gravitating Yang-Mills–Higgs (YMH) in 4p spacetime dimensions. The YMH systems consist of 2p−th power curvature fields without a Higgs potential. The gravitational systems consist of the ‘Ricci scalar’ of the p−th power of the Riemann curvature. In 4 spacetime dimensions this is the usual Ein...
متن کاملGravitating Yang-Mills vortices in 4+1 spacetime dimensions
The coupling to gravity in D=5 spacetime dimensions is considered for the particle-like and vortex-type solutions obtained by uplifting the D=4 YangMills instantons and D=3 Yang-Mills-Higgs monopoles. It turns out that the particles become completely destroyed by gravity, while the vortices admit a rich spectrum of gravitating generalizations. Such vortex defects may be interesting in view of t...
متن کاملGravitating Non-Abelian Solitons and Black Holes with Yang-Mills Fields
We present a review of gravitating particle-like and black hole solutions with nonAbelian gauge fields. The emphasis is given to the description of the structure of the solutions and to the connection with the results of flat space soliton physics. We describe the Bartnik-McKinnon solitons and the non-Abelian black holes arising in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory, and consider their various gene...
متن کاملGravitating Yang-Mills dyon vortices in 4+1 spacetime dimensions
We consider vortex-type solutions in d = 5 dimensions of the Einstein gravity coupled to a nonabelian SU(2) field posessing a nonzero electric part. After the dimensional reduction, this corresponds to a d = 4 Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs-U(1)-dilaton model. A general axially symmetric ansatz is presented, and the properties of the spherically symmetric solutions are analysed.
