A study of noncommutative instantons
We consider the properties and behaviour of 2 U(2) noncommutative instantons: solutions of the NC-deformed ADHM equations which arise from U(2) 5d Yang-Mills theory. The ADHM construction allows us to find all such solutions, which form a moduli space of allowed configurations. We derive the metric...

| description |
We consider the properties and behaviour of 2 U(2) noncommutative instantons: solutions of the NC-deformed ADHM equations which arise from U(2) 5d Yang-Mills theory. The ADHM construction allows us to find all such solutions, which form a moduli space of allowed configurations. We derive the metric for such a space, and consider the dynamics of the instantons on this space using the Manton approximation. We examine the reduction of this system to lower-dimensional soliton theories, and finally consider the effect of adding a Higgs field to the SYM theory, resulting in a potential on the instanton moduli space. |
