The modeling of nuclear reactions and radioactive decays in astrophysical or earth-based conditions requires detailed knowledge of the masses of essentially all nuclei. Microscopic mass models based on nuclear energy density functionals…
The supersymmetric baby-Skyrme model is an interesting field theoretical model, and its BPS states have been studied using the usual methods. Here, we propose a novel method to rigorously obtain both topologically stable BPS and non-BPS…
The formalism of linear response theory for a Skyrme functional including spin-orbit and tensor terms is generalized to the case of infinite nuclear matter with arbitrary isospin asymmetry. Response functions are obtained by solving an…
The representations of general dimension are constructed for the $SU(2)$ Skyrme model, treated quantum mechanically {\it ab initio. } This quantum Skyrme model has a negative mass term correction, that is not present in the classical…
Using the concept of strong necessary conditions (CSNC), we derive a complete decomposition of the minimal Skyrme model into a sum of three coupled BPS submodels with the same topological bound. The bounds are saturated if corresponding…
We derive the nucleon-nucleon interaction from the Skyrme model using second order perturbation theory and the dipole approximation to skyrmion dynamics. Unlike previous derivations, our derivation accounts for the non-trivial kinetic and…
The energy levels of a skyrmion in nucleus are calculated in a field theory of skyrmions coupled to the dilaton field and the $\omega$ meson . The central potential fits well with expectations. The nucleon spin-orbit interaction derived…
A problem with the standard Skyrme model is that Skyrmion binding energies are around $15\%$, being much larger than the order $1\%$ binding energies of the nuclei that they aim to describe. Here we consider theories that extend the…
We study several deformations of the Skyrme model in three dimensions with self-dual sectors of arbitrary baryonic charge. We show that, for a family of background metrics as well as for a family of field dependent couplings, the model has…
Using a solitonic model of nuclear matter, the BPS Skyrme model, we compare neutron stars obtained in the full field theory, where gravitational back reaction is completely taken into account, with calculations in a mean-field approximation…
The non-relativistic model of nuclear matter with zero-range Skyrme interactions is employed within a Bayesian approach in order to study the behavior of neutron stars (NSs) equation of state (EOS). A minimal number of constraints from…

The Skyrme model is a classical field theory which models the strong interaction between atomic nuclei. It has to be quantized in order to compare it to nuclear physics. When the Skyrme model is semi-classically quantized it is important to…
The problem of the divergences which arise in beyond mean-field calculations, when a zero-range effective interaction is employed, has not been much considered so far. Some of us have proposed, quite recently, a scheme to regularize a…
