abstract

We present a review of gravitating particle-like and black hole solutions with non-Abelian gauge fields. The emphasis is given to the description of the structure of the solutions and to the connection with the results of flat space soliton physics. We describe the Bartnik-McKinnon solitons and the non-Abelian black holes arising in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory, and their various generalizations. These include axially symmetric and slowly rotating configurations, solutions with higher gauge groups, $\Lambda$-term, dilaton, and higher curvature corrections. The stability issue is discussed as well. We also describe the gravitating generalizations for flat space monopoles, sphalerons, and Skyrmions.

Charged nutty black holes are hairy

gr-qc · 2026-02-01 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Misner strings accompanying charged nutty black holes carry effective electric and magnetic charges via singular field flows with nonzero divergence, creating observable short-range electromagnetic hair.

Universality of merons in non-Abelian gauge theories

hep-th · 2026-04-15 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Merons are universal in many non-Abelian gauge theories and source regular black holes and Euclidean wormholes via a non-Abelian Ayón-Beato-García generalization.
