Abstract

Self-dual solitons of Chern-Simons Higgs theory are examined in curved spacetime. We derive duality transformation of the Einstein Chern-Simons Higgs theory within path integral formalism and study various aspects of dual formulation including derivation of Bogomolnyi type bound. We find all possible rotationally-symmetric soliton configurations carrying magnetic flux and angular momentum when underlying spatial manifolds of these objects comprise a cone, a cylinder, and a two sphere.
