Growth of spinors in the generalized Seiberg-Witten equations on mathbb R^4 and mathbb R^3
Abstract
The classical Seiberg-Witten equations in dimensions three and four admit a natural generalization within a unified framework known as the generalized Seiberg-Witten (GSW) equations, which encompasses many important equations in gauge theory. This article proves that the averaged L^2-norm of any spinor with non-constant pointwise norm in the GSW equations on mathbb R^4 and mathbb R^3, measured over large-radius spheres, grows faster than a power of the radius, under a suitable curvature decay assumption. Separately, it is shown that if the Yang-Mills-Higgs energy of any solution of these equations is finite, then the pointwise norm of the spinor in it must converge to a non-negative constant at infinity. These two behaviors cannot occur simultaneously unless the spinor has constant pointwise norm. This work may be seen as partial generalization of results obtained by Taubes[Tau17a], and Nagy and Oliveira [NO19] for the Kapustin-Witten equations.
