Abstract

In a recent publication we noticed that the Hamiltonian density for fluctuations around the 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole appeared to be non-Hermitian. Here we show that when this Hamiltonian density is integrated into the Hamiltonian all non-Hermitian terms give a vanishing total contribution.
