abstract
We show that there are solutions of the SU(2) Yang-Mills classical equations of motion in R^4, which are self-dual and vortex-like(fluxons). The action density is concentrated along a thick two-dimensional wall (the world sheet of a straight infinite vortex line). The configurations are constructed from self-dual R^2 x T^2 configurations.

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.

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.

Metamorphosis of fractional instantons on a twisted $T^4$ with a double-trace deformation: a numerical study
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.
