On BPS equations of generalized SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model with scalars-dependent coupling θ-term
Abstract
We consider a most general SU (2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model consist of terms up to quadratic in first-derivative of the fields, that is the generalized SU (2) Yang-Mills-Higgs with additional scalars-dependent coupling θ -term. Using the BPS Lagrangian method we try to find Bogomolnyi’s equations for BPS monopoles and dyons by taking most general BPS Lagrangian density. We obtain more general Bogomolnyi’s equations and a relation between all scalars dependent couplings. From these equations we can see there is a family of BPS monopole solutions parameterized by a real constant γ , while for BPS dyons there is an additional parameter which is the coupling of θ -term. Interestingly even for a single BPS dyon we find the value of θ -term’s coupling only gives additional contribution to electric charge of BPS Dyons, which is in accordance with Witten’s result in Phys.Lett. B 86 (1979), and thus can determine whether we get BPS monopoles or BPS dyons. In the presence of the coupling of θ -term, it is now possible to obtain Julia-Zee BPS dyons where all scalar-dependent couplings are non-constants, which is the extension to the BPS Julia-Zee dyons proposed in Eur.Phys.J. C 82, 602 (2022).
