BPS Z(2) monopoles and N=2 SU(n) superconformal field theories on the   Higgs branch
  We obtain BPS Z(2) monopole solutions in Yang-Mills-Higgs theories with the gauge group SU(n) broken to Spin(n)/Z(2) by a scalar field in the nxn representation. We show that the magnetic weights of the so-called fundamental Z(2) monopoles correspond to the weights of the defining representation of the algebra dual to so(n), and the masses of the nonfundamental BPS Z(2) monopoles are equal to the sum of the masses of the constituent fundamental monopoles. We also show that the vacua responsible for the existence of these Z(2) monopoles are present in the Higgs branch of a class of N=2 SU(n) superconformal field theories. We analyze some dualities these monopoles may satisfy.
