Yang–Mills solutions and dyons on cylinders over coset spaces with Sasakian structure

We present solutions of the Yang–Mills equation on cylinders R×G/H over coset spaces of odd dimension 2m+1 with Sasakian structure. The gauge potential is assumed to be SU(m)-equivariant, parameterized by two real, scalar-valued functions. Yang–Mills theory with torsion in this setup reduces to the...

The gauge potential is assumed to be SU(m)-equivariant, parameterized by two real, scalar-valued functions. Yang–Mills theory with torsion in this setup reduces to the Newtonian mechanics of a point particle moving in R2 under the influence of an inverted potential.
