On the Existence of Solutions to the Seiberg-Witten Vortex Equations with Exponential Decay on the Plane
Abstract
Clifford Taubes showed that the moduli space of the variational equations of the Yang-Mills-Higgs functional on the plane is non-empty, and its elements correspond to "vortices". Inspired by this result, in this paper, we completely characterize exponential decay solutions to the Seiberg-Witten vortex equations, where the equations are derived by applying a Hitchin-type dimensional reduction. We show that the existence of Seiberg-Witten ``vortices'' is not provided by the exponential decay solutions. This is in contrast to the Yang-Mill-Higgs vortex equations.
