Solitons of Sigma Model on Noncommutative Space as Solitons of Electron System

We study the relationship of soliton solutions for electron system with those of the sigma model on the noncommutative space, working directly in the operator formalism. We find that some soliton solutions of the sigma model are also the solitons of the electron system and are classified by the same topological numbers.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX2e, improvements to discussions, Version to be published in JHE

Lost equivalence of nonlinear sigma and CP1CP^{1} models on noncommutative space

We show that the equivalence of nonlinear sigma and $CP^{1}$ models which is valid on the commutative space is broken on the noncommutative space. This conclusion is arrived at through investigation of new BPS solitons that do not exist in the commutative limit.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX2

Chern-Simons Solitons, Chiral Model, and (affine) Toda Model on Noncommutative Space

We consider the Dunne-Jackiw-Pi-Trugenberger model of a U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory coupled to a nonrelativistic complex adjoint matter on noncommutative space. Soliton configurations of this model are related the solutions of the chiral model on noncommutative plane. A generalized Uhlenbeck's uniton method for the chiral model on noncommutative space provides explicit Chern-Simons solitons. Fundamental solitons in the U(1) gauge theory are shaped as rings of charge `n' and spin `n' where the Chern-Simons level `n' should be an integer upon quantization. Toda and Liouville models are generalized to noncommutative plane and the solutions are provided by the uniton method. We also define affine Toda and sine-Gordon models on noncommutative plane. Finally the first order moduli space dynamics of Chern-Simons solitons is shown to be trivial.Comment: latex, JHEP style, 23 pages, no figur

New BPS Solitons in 2+1 Dimensional Noncommutative CP^1 Model

Investigating the solitons in the non-commutative $CP^{1}$ model, we have found a new set of BPS solitons which does not have counterparts in the commutative model.Comment: 8 pages, LaTeX2e, references added, improvements to discussions, Version to be published in JHE

Non Abelian Vortices as Instantons on Noncommutative Discrete Space

There seems to be close relationship between the moduli space of vortices and the moduli space of instantons, which is not yet clearly understood from a standpoint of the field theory. We clarify the reasons why many similarities are found in the methods for constructing the moduli of instanton and vortex, viewed in the light of the notion of the self-duality. We show that the non-Abelian vortex is nothing but the instanton in $R^{2} \times Z_{2}$ from a viewpoint of the noncommutative differential geometry and the gauge theory in discrete space. The action for pure Yang-Mills theory in $R^{2} \times Z_{2}$ is equivalent to that for Yang-Mills-Higgs theory in $R^{2}$.Comment: 19 pages, various arguments are added, the exposition is improve
