已知$d=3+1$中单极子可以被涡弦限制，而$d=2+1$中涡可以被域线限制。在这里，作为这些的高维推广，我们证明杨-米尔斯瞬子可以被 $d=4+1$ 中的单极子弦限制。我们通过将系统置于希格斯相来实现这一点，在希格斯相中可以在非阿贝尔涡旋片内构造配置。
It is known that monopoles can be confined by vortex strings in $d=3+1$ while vortices can be confined by domain lines in $d=2+1$. Here, as a higher dimensional generalization of these, we show that Yang-Mills instantons can be confined by monopole strings in $d=4+1$. We achieve this by putting the system into the Higgs phase in which the configuration can be constructed inside a non-Abelian vortex sheet.
