1211.4352 (N. S. Manton)

Vortex solutions of the Popov equations    [PDF]

N. S. Manton
Popov recently discovered a modified version of the Bogomolny equations for abelian Higgs vortices, and showed they were integrable on a sphere of curvature 1/2. Here we construct a large family of explicit solutions, where the vortex number is an even, negative integer. There are also a few solutions without vortices. The solutions are constructed from rational functions on the sphere.
