BPS Monopoles and Electromagnetic Duality

1997 
We review our recent work on the BPS magnetic monopoles and its relation to the electromagnetic duality in the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills systems with an arbitrary gauge group. The gauge group can be maximally or partially broken. The low energy dynamics of the massive and massless magnetic monopoles are approximated by the moduli space metric. We emphasize the possible connection between the nature of the monopole moduli space with unbroken gauge group and the physics of mesons and baryons in QCD.
