Introduction

A brief history of Einstein-Yang-Mills

Asymptotically flat EYM studied for over 20 years Purely magnetic su(2) solitons and black holes found numerically 1989-90 Have no magnetic charge

Non-abelian baldness of asymptotically flat su(2) EYM

If Λ = 0, the only solution of the su(2) EYM equations with a non-zero (electric or magnetic) charge is Abelian Reissner-Nordstr¨

  • m

Rules out dyonic su(2) asymptotically flat solutions

[ Ershov and Gal’tsov, PLA 138 160 (1989), 150 159 (1990) ]

Ershov/Gal’tsov result no longer holds for larger gauge group in asymptotically flat space What about asymptotically anti-de Sitter space?

Conclusions

Conclusions and outlook

Dyons in su(N) EYM in adS

Black hole and soliton solutions with both electric and magnetic gauge fields: su(2) dyonic solutions found previously by Bjoraker and Hosotani Examination of larger part of solution space shows a very rich menagerie of solutions New su(3) dyonic solutions Solutions in which magnetic functions ωk have no zeros for larger |Λ|

Open questions

For sufficiently large |Λ| Prove analytically the existence of dyonic solutions for all N Stability when ωk have no zeros?
