Abstract

We study vortex-type solutions in a (4+1)-dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills-SU(2) model. Assuming all fields to be independent on the extra coordinate, these solutions correspond in a four-dimensional picture to axially symmetric multimonopoles, respectively, monopole-antimonopole solutions. By boosting the five-dimensional purely magnetic solutions, we find new configurations which in four dimensions represent rotating regular non-Abelian solutions with an additional electric charge.
