Title: Fractional topological charge and torons in supersymmetric O(3) /sigma/-model and in gauge theories

Journal Article · · Mod. Phys. Lett. A; (United States)

The new class of self-dual solutions with a fractional topological number in the 2d O(3) /sigma/-model and 4d SUSY gluodynamics (SYM) are considered. The corresponding contribution to fermion condensate (psi-bar psi) has finite nonzero value.
