Abstract

In this paper we show how to derive the Bogomolny's equations of the generalized self-dual Maxwell-Chern-Simons-Higgs model presented in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux} by using the BPS Lagrangian method with a particular choice of the BPS Lagrangian density. We also show that the identification, potential terms, and Gauss's law constraint can be derived rigorously under the BPS Lagrangian method. In this method, we find that the potential terms are the most general form that could have the BPS vortex solutions. The Gauss's law constraint turns out to be the Euler-Lagrange equations of the BPS Lagrangian density. We also find another BPS vortex solutions by taking other identification between the neutral scalar field and the electric scalar potential field, $N=\pm A_0$, which is different by a relative sign to the identification in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux}, $N=\mp A_0$. Under this identification, $N=\pm A_0$, we obtain a slightly different potential terms and Bogomolny's equations compared to the ones in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux}. Furthermore we compute the solutions numerically, with the same configurations as in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux}, and find that only the resulting electric field plots differ by sign relative to the results in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux}. Therefore we conclude that these BPS vortices are electric-dual BPS vortices of the ones computed in \cite{Bazeia:2012ux}.
