Multi-Monopole Moduli Spaces for SU(n) Gauge Group
read the original abstract
The moduli space describing the low-energy dynamics of BPS multi-monopoles for several charge configurations is presented. We first prove the conjectured form of the moduli space of $n-1$ distinct monopoles in a spontaneously broken SU(n) gauge theory. We further propose the solution where one of the charge components has two units, hence asymptotically corresponds to embeddings of two monopoles of one charge type and the rest different. The latter hyperk\"ahler metrics possess features of the two-monopole Atiyah-Hitchin metric. We also conjecture classes of solutions to multi-monopole moduli spaces with arbitrary charge and no more than two units in each component, which models the gluing together of Atiyah-Hitchin metrics. Our approach here uses the generalized Legendre transform technique to find the new hyperk\"ahler manifolds and rederive previously conjectured ones.
