Generalized Jacobi elliptic one-monopole: Type A

Generalized Jacobi elliptic one-monopole: Type A
Generalized Jacobi elliptic one-monopole: Type A
We present a new classical generalized one-monopole solution of the SU(2) Yang–Mills–Higgs theory with the Higgs field in the adjoint representation. We show that this generalized solution with θ-winding number m = 1 and ϕ-winding number n = 1 is an axially symmetric Jacobi elliptic generalization of the 't Hooft–Polyakov one-monopole. We construct this axially symmetric one-monopole solution by generalizing the large distance asymptotic solution of the 't Hooft–Polyakov one-monopole to the Jacobi elliptic functions and solving the second-order equations of motion numerically when the Higgs potential is vanishing and nonvanishing. These solutions are regular non-BPS finite energy solutions.

Abstract

We present a new classical generalized one-monopole solution of the SU(2) Yang–Mills–Higgs theory with the Higgs field in the adjoint representation. We show that this generalized solution with θ-winding number m = 1 and ϕ-winding number n = 1 is an axially symmetric Jacobi elliptic generalization of the 't Hooft–Polyakov one-monopole. We construct this axially symmetric one-monopole solution by generalizing the large distance asymptotic solution of the 't Hooft–Polyakov one-monopole to the Jacobi elliptic functions and solving the second-order equations of motion numerically when the Higgs potential is vanishing and nonvanishing. These solutions are regular non-BPS finite energy solutions.
