Abstract

We discuss the structure of topological solitons in a general non-Heisenberg model of isotropic two-dimensional magnet with spin S=1, in the vicinity of a special point where the model symmetry is enhanced to SU(3). It is shown that upon perturbing the SU(3) symmetry, solitons with odd topological charge become unstable and bind into pairs.
