Extended Nielsen-Olesen vortex solutions to higher dimensions.
Demonstrated the equations of motion admit these solutions.
Abstract
We find topological defect solutions to the equations of motion of a generalised Higgs model with antisymmetric tensor fields. These solutions are direct higher dimensional analogues of the Nielsen-Olesen vortex solution for a gauge field in four dimensions.
