Generalisations of the 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole which can exhibit repulsion only, attraction only, and both attraction and repulsion, between like monopoles, are studied numerically. The models supporting these solitons are SO(3) gauged Higgs models featuring Skyrme-like terms.

  1. Attractive and repulsive Yang-Mills--Higgs magnetic monopoles on $\mathbb{R}^3$

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A new non-Abelian Higgs model on R^3 supports attractive and repulsive monopole phases stabilized by a Higgs analogue of the Chern-Pontryagin charge rather than the standard topological bound.
