Numerical lattice study shows fractional instantons on twisted T^4 morph into monopole-instantons and center vortices as geometry interpolates between R^{4-k} x T^k, with some transitions discontinuous under deformation.
Classifies dyonic lattices consistent with SM gauge structure, re-derives θ periodicities, reduces physical θ-space to a 2-torus, and shows one axion is insufficient for full CP invariance.

D-branes and fractional instantons on a twisted four torus: the moduli space as an N=2 supersymmetric Higgs branch
The local moduli space of charge-r/N self-dual instantons on a twisted T^4 is identified with the Higgs branch of a 4d N=2 theory on intersecting D5-branes, reproducing prior field-theory results with manifest hyper-Kähler structure.
