Abstract

We show that ZN string's BPS equations are equivalent to the Hitchin's equations (or self-duality equation) and also to the zero curvature condition. We construct the general form for BPS ZN string solutions for arbitrary simple gauge groups with non-trivial center. Depending on the vacuum solutions considered, the ZN string's BPS equations reduce to different two dimensional integrable field equations. For a particular vacuum we obtain the equation of affine Toda field theory.
