contents The effective Hamiltonians for chiral supersymmetric gauge theories at small spatial volume are generalizations of the Hamiltonians describing the motion of a scalar or a spinor particle in a field of Dirac monopoles (we are dealing in fact with a certain lattice of monopoles supplemented with a periodic singular potential). The gauge fields in such Hamiltonians belong to the Cartan subalgebras of the corresponding gauge algebras. Such a construction exists for all groups admitting complex representations, i.e. for $SU(N \geq 3), \ Spin(4n+2)$ with $n \geq 1$ and $E_6$. We give explicit expressions for these Hamiltonians for $SU(3)$, $SU(4) \simeq Spin(6)$ and for $SU(5)$. The simplified version of such a Hamiltonian, deprived of fermion terms, of the extra scalar potential and when only one node of the lattice is taken into consideration, describe a $3r$-dimensional motion ($r$ being the rank of the group) in the field what we call a {\it Cartan monopole}. As is the case for the ordinary monopole, the Lagrangian of this system enjoys gauge symmetry, rotational symmetry, and the parameter, generalizing the notion of magnetic charge for Cartan monopoles, is quantized.
