Liouville Vortex And $φ^{4}$ Kink Solutions Of The Seiberg--Witten Equations

The Seiberg--Witten equations, when dimensionally reduced to $\bf R^{2}\mit$, naturally yield the Liouville equation, whose solutions are parametrized by an arbitrary analytic function $g(z)$. The magnetic flux $Φ$ is the integral of a singular Kaehler form involving $g(z)$; for an appropriate choice of $g(z)$ , $N$ coaxial or separated vortex configurations with $Φ=\frac{2πN}{e}$ are obtained when the integral is regularized. The regularized connection in the $\bf R^{1}\mit$ case coincides with the kink solution of $φ^{4}$ theory.

A Quasiperiodic Gibbons--Hawking Metric and Spacetime Foam

We present a quasiperiodic self-dual metric of the Gibbons--Hawking type with one gravitational instanton per spacetime cell. The solution, based on an adaptation of Weierstrassian $ζ$ and $σ$ functions to three dimensions, conforms to a definition of spacetime foam given by Hawking.

Does the Gursey-Tze Solution Represent a Monopole Condensate?

We recast the quaternionic Gursey-Tze solution, which is a fourfold quasi-periodic self-dual Yang-Mills field with a unit instanton number per Euclidean spacetime cell, into an ordinary coordinate formulation. After performing the sum in the Euclidean time direction, we use an observation by Rossi which suggests the solution represents an arrangement with a BPS monopole per space lattice cell. This may provide a concrete realization of a monopole condensate in pure Yang-Mills theory.
