Localizing gravity on a ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole in seven dimensions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present regular solutions for a brane world scenario in the form of a ’t HooftPolyakov monopole living in the three-dimensional spherical symmetric transverse space of a seven-dimensional spacetime. In contrast to the cases of a domain-wall in five dimensions and a string in six dimensions, there exist gravity-localizing solutions for both signs of the bulk cosmological constant. A detailed discussion of the parameter space that leads to localization of gravity is given. A point-like monopole limit is discussed. Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected]

Scheme for Building a 't Hooft-Polyakov Monopole.
We study a simple quantum mechanical model of a spinning particle moving on a sphere in the presence of a magnetic field. The system has two ground states. As the magnetic field is varied, the ground states mix through a non-Abelian Berry phase. We show that this Berry phase is the path ordered exponential of the smooth SU(2) 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole. We further show that, by adjusting a pote...
متن کاملTopological solitons from deconstructed extra dimensions.
A topological monopolelike field configuration exists for Yang-Mills gauge fields in 4+1 dimensions. When the extra dimension is compactified to 3+1 dimensions with periodic lattice boundary conditions, these objects reappear in the low-energy effective theory as a novel solution, a gauged-bosonic Skyrmion. When the low-energy theory spontaneously breaks, the Nambu-Goldstone mode develops a vac...
متن کاملMultimonopoles and Closed Vortices in Su (2) Yang-mills-higgs Theory
We review classical monopole solutions of the SU (2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory. The first part is a pedagogical introduction into to the basic features of the celebrated 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole. In the second part we describe new classes of static axially symmetric solutions which generalise 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole. These configurations are either deformations of the topologically trivial s...
متن کاملGinsparg-Wilson Relation and ’t Hooft-Polyakov Monopole on Fuzzy 2-Sphere
We investigate several properties of Ginsparg-Wilson fermion on fuzzy 2-sphere. We first examine chiral anomaly up to the second order of the gauge field and show that it is indeed reduced to the correct form of the Chern character in the commutative limit. Next we study topologically non-trivial gauge configurations and their topological charges. We investigate ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole type ...
متن کاملMass of a quantum ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole
The quantum mechanical mass of ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopoles in the fourdimensional Georgi-Glashow is calculated non-perturbatively using lattice Monte Carlo simulations. This is done by imposing twisted boundary conditions that ensure there is one unit of magnetic charge on the lattice, and measuring the free energy difference between this ensemble and the vacuum. In the weak-coupling limit, the...
