SU(5) Gravitating Monopoles

Spherically symmetric solutions of the SU(5) Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs system are constructed using the harmonic map ansatz \cite{IS}. This way the problem reduces to solving a set of ordinary differential equations for the appropriate profile functions.Comment: 12 pages, 3 Figure

Quadratic integrals of motions for the systems of identical particles-quantum case

The quantum dynamical systems of identical particles admitting an additional integral quadratic in momenta are considered. It is found that an appropriate ordering procedure exists which allows to convert the classical integrals into their quantum counterparts. The relation to the separation of variables in Schroedinger equation is discussed.Comment: 6 pages, no figure

Central potential and examples of hidden algebra structure

We propose two generalisations of the Coulomb potential equation of quantum mechanics and investigate the occurence of algebraic eigenfunctions for the corresponding Scrh\"odinger equations. Some relativistic counterparts of these problems are also discussed.Comment: 8 pages, latex, no figure

Gravitating dyons and the Lue-Weinberg bifurcation

Gravitating t'Hooft-Polyakov magnetic monopoles can be constructed when coupling the Georgi-Glashow model to gravitation. For a given value of the Higgs boson mass, these gravitating solitons exist up to a critical value of the ratio of the vector meson mass to the Planck mass. The critical solution is characterized by a degenerate horizon of the metric. As pointed out recently by Lue and Weinberg, two types of critical solutions can occur, depending on the value of the Higgs boson mass. Here we investigate this transition for dyons and show that the Lue and Weinberg phenomenon is favorized by the presence of the electric-charge degree of freedom.Comment: RevTeX, 6 pages, 8 figure

On Spherically-Symmetric Solutions in the Two-Higgs Standard Model

We report the results of a numerical search for non-topological solitons in the two-Higgs standard model, characterized by the non-trivial winding, $\pi_3(S^3)$, of the relative phase of the two doublets. In a region of (weak-coupling) parameter space we identify a branch of winding solutions, which are lower in energy than the embedded standard sphaleron and deformed (bi)sphalerons. Contrary, however, to what happens in 2d toy models, these solutions remain unstable even for very large Higgs masses.Comment: 11 LaTeX pages including 3 .eps figure

Irreducible Representations of an Algebra underlying Hidden Symmetries of a class of Quasi Exactly Solvable Systems of Equations

The set of linear, differential operators preserving the vector space of couples of polynomials of degrees n and n-2 in one real variable leads to an abstract associative graded algebra A(2). The irreducible, finite dimensional representations of this algebra are classified into five infinite discrete sets and one exceptional case. Their matrix elements are given explicitely. The results are related to the theory of quasi exactly solvable equations.Comment: 38 pages, late
