  • Electromagnetic Duality, Quaternion and Supersymmetric Gauge
    Electromagnetic Duality, Quaternion and Supersymmetric Gauge Theories of Dyons H. Dehnen and O. P. S. Negi∗ 2nd July 2021 Universitt Konstanz Fachbereich Physik Postfach M 677 D-78457 Konstanz,Germany Email:[email protected] ops [email protected] Abstract Starting with the generalized potentials, currents, field tensors and elec- tromagnetic vector fields of dyons as the complex complex quantities with real and imaginary counter parts as electric and magnetic constituents, we have established the electromagnetic duality for various fields and equations of motion associated with dyons in consistent way. It has been shown that the manifestly covariant forms of generalized field equations and equation of motion of dyons are invariant under duality transformations. Quaternionic formulation for generalized fields of dyons are developed and corresponding field equations are derived in compact and simpler manner. Supersymmetric gauge theories are accordingly reviewed to discuss the behaviour of duali- ties associated with BPS mass formula of dyons in terms of supersymmetric charges. Consequently, the higher dimensional supersymmetric gauge the- ories for N=2 and N=4 supersymmetries are analysed over the fields of arXiv:hep-th/0608164v1 23 Aug 2006 complex and quaternions respectively. 1 Introduction The asymmetry between electricity and magnetism became very clear at the end of 19th century with the formulation of Maxwell’s equations. Magnetic monopoles were advocated [1] to symmetrize these equations in a manifest way that the mere existence of an isolated magnetic charge implies the quantization of electric charge and accordingly the considerable literature [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] has come in force.

  • Electrically and Magnetically Charged Vortices in the Chern–Simons–Higgs Theory
    ELECTRICALLY AND MAGNETICALLY CHARGED VORTICES IN THE CHERN–SIMONS–HIGGS THEORY ROBIN MING CHEN, YUJIN GUO, DANIEL SPIRN AND YISONG YANG ABSTRACT. In this paper, we prove the existence of finite-energy electrically and mag- netically charged vortex solutions in the full Chern–Simons–Higgs theory for which both the Maxwell term and Chern–Simons term are present in the Lagrangian density. We con- sider both Abelian and non-Abelian cases. The solutions are smooth and satisfy natural boundary conditions. Existence is established via a constrained minimization procedure applied on indefinite action functionals. This work settles a long-standing open problem concerning the existence of dually charged vortices in the classical gauge field Higgs model minimally extended to contain a Chern–Simons term. 1. INTRODUCTION In his celebrated work [24], Dirac showed that the existence of a magnetic monopole solution to the Maxwell equations has the profound implication that electric charges in the universe are all quantized. Later, Schwinger [64] further explored the idea of Dirac and proposed the existence of both electrically and magnetically charged particle-like solutions, called dyons and used them to model quarks. In particular, Schwinger [64] generalized the electric charge quantization condition of Dirac [24] to a quantization condition relating electric and magnetic charges of a dyon. In modern theoretical physics, dyons are consid- ered as excited states of magnetic monopoles. Both magnetic monopoles and dyons, and their abundance, are predicted by grand unified theories [2, 31, 45, 46, 49, 60, 78]. The well-known finite-energy singularity-free magnetic monopole and dyon solutions in the Yang–Mills–Higgs theory include the monopole solutions due to Polyakov[58], t’Hooft [77], Bogomol’nyi [12], Prasad and Sommerfeld [59], Taubes [37, 76], and the dyon so- lutions due to Julia and Zee [38], Bogomol’nyi [12], Prasad and Sommerfeld [59].

  • Mapping the Charge-Dyon System Into the Position-Dependent Effective
    Mapping the charge-dyon system into the position-dependent effective mass background via Pauli equation Anderson L. de Jesus∗ and Alexandre G. M. Schmidty Departamento de F´ısica de Volta Redonda, Instituto de Ci^enciasExatas | Universidade Federal Fluminense, R. Des. Ellis Hermydio Figueira, 783, Bloco C, Volta Redonda RJ, CEP 27213-145, Brazil (Dated: November 3, 2020) Abstract This work aims to reproduce a quantum system composed of a charged spin - 1=2 fermion interacting with a dyon with an opposite electrical charge (charge-dyon system), utilizing a position- dependent effective mass (PDM) background in the non-relativistic regime via the PDM free Pauli equation. To investigate whether there is a PDM quantum system with the same physics (analogous model) that a charge-dyon system (target system), we resort to the PDM free Pauli equation itself. We proceed with replacing the exact bi-spinor of the target system into this equation, obtaining an uncoupled system of non-linear partial differential equations for the mass distribution M. We were able to solve them numerically for M considering a radial dependence only, i.e., M = M(r), fixing θ0, and considering specific values of µ and m satisfying a certain condition. We present the solutions graphically, and from them, we determine the respective effective potentials, which actually represent our analogous models. We study the mapping for eigenvalues starting from the minimal value j = µ − 1=2. arXiv:2011.00516v1 [quant-ph] 1 Nov 2020 PACS numbers: Keywords: Position-dependent mass systems; Pauli equation; Dyon. ∗ Corresponding author yElectronic address: [email protected]ff.br, Telephone: (+55) 24 3076 8935, FAX: (+55) 24 3076 8870 1 I.

  • Constructing Symmetric Topological Phases of Bosons in Three Dimensions Via Fermionic Projective Construction and Dyon Condensation
    Constructing symmetric topological phases of bosons in three dimensions via fermionic projective construction and dyon condensation Peng Ye1 and Xiao-Gang Wen1, 2 1Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L 2Y5 2Department of Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 Recently, there is a considerable study on gapped symmetric phases of bosons that do not break any symmetry. Even without symmetry breaking, the bosons can still be in many exotic new states of matter, such as symmetry-protected trivial (SPT) phases which are short-range entangled and symmetry-enriched topological (SET) phases which are long-range entangled. It is well-known that non-interacting fermionic topological insulators are SPT states protected by time-reversal symmetry and U(1) fermion number conservation symmetry. In this paper, we construct three-dimensional exotic phases of bosons with time-reversal symmetry and boson number conservation U(1) symmetry by means of fermionic projective construction. We first construct an algebraic bosonic insulator which is a symmetric bosonic state with an emergent U(1) gapless gauge field. We then obtain many gapped bosonic states that do not break the time-reversal symmetry and boson number conservation via proper dyon condensations. We identify the constructed states by calculating the allowed electric and magnetic charges of their excitations, as well as the statistics and the symmetric transformation properties of those excitations. This allows us to show that our constructed states can be trivial SPT states (i.e. trivial Mott insulators of bosons with symmetry), non-trivial SPT states (i.e. bosonic topological insulators) and SET states (i.e.
