Employing the asymptotic instanton solution in an arbitrary background of a set of holographic QCD models, we show that baryon form factors have a precise large-distance behaviour regardless of the background. The dependence coincides with…
We propose how to approach, and report on the first results in our effort for, describing nuclear matter starting from the solitonic picture of baryons which is supposed to represent QCD for large number of colors. For this purpose, the…
Some time ago, Atiyah and Manton observed that computing the holonomy of Yang-Mills instantons yields good approximations to static Skyrmion solutions of the Skyrme model. This paper provides an extension and explanation of this result, by…
A new method is introduced to construct approximations to Skyrmions that are explicit rational functions of the spatial Cartesian coordinates. The scheme uses ADHM data of a Yang-Mills instanton to produce a Skyrmion with a baryon number…
In this review we present a pedagogical introduction to recent, more mathematical developments in the Skyrme model. Our aim is to render these advances accessible to mainstream nuclear and particle physicists. We start with the static…
Atiyah and Manton have outlined a scheme to obtain approximations to the SU(2) skyrmions from instantons in $\R^4$. In this paper we apply this scheme to construct, in an explicit form, approximations to static spherically symmetric SU(N)…
We generalize the approach of Atiyah and Manton for generating Skyrmion configurations from instantons. The result is a series which parameters are found directly from the chiral angle equation. The series converge rapidly to the exact…
We present the idea of using the holonomy along a line of a constrained instanton solution (an approximate solution of the Euclidean equations of motion subject to a constraint) of an $\rm SU(2)$ Yang-Mills-Higgs theory to approximate the…
In a wide class of holographic models, like the one proposed by Sakai and Sugimoto, baryons can be approximated by instantons of non-abelian gauge fields that live on the world-volume of flavor D-branes. In the leading order, those are just…
To study a nuclear system in the Skyrme model one must first construct a space of low energy Skyrme configurations. However, there is no mathematical definition of this configuration space and there is not even consensus on its fundamental…
The possible boundary value problems of the skyrmions are reexamined in the original Skyrme model with two new viewpoints. The first one suggests to replace the infinity boundary point by the finite radius R, which is related to the density…
Some years ago, Atiyah and Manton described a method to construct approximate Skyrmion solutions from Yang-Mills instantons. Here we present a dynamical realization of this construction using domain walls in a five-dimensional gauge theory.…
An unified approximated solution for symmetric Skyrmions was proposed for the SU(2) Skyrme model for baryon numbers up to 8,which take the hybrid form of a kink-like solution and that given by the instanton method. The Skyrmion profiles are…
We apply two very different approaches to calculate Skyrmions with baryon number B less than 23. The first employs the rational map ansatz, where approximate charge B Skyrmions are constructed from a degree B rational map between Riemann…
We propose, via the Atiyah-Manton approximation, a framework for studying skyrmions on $\mathbb{R}^3$ using ADHM data for Yang-Mills instantons on $\mathbb{R}^4$. We provide a dictionary between important concepts in the Skyrme model and…
We study baryons as Skyrmions in holographic QCD with D4/D8/D8-bar multi-D brane system in type IIA superstring theory, and also in the non-linear sigma model with hidden local symmetry (HLS). Comparing these two models, we find that the…
We show that Skyrmions with massless pions in hyperbolic space provide a good approximation to Skyrmions with massive pions in Euclidean space, for a particular relationship between the pion mass and the curvature of hyperbolic space. Using…
We explore the hadron properties in dense baryonic matter in a unified way by using a Skyrme model constructed with an effective Lagrangian which includes the $\rho$ and $\omega$ vector mesons as hidden gauge bosons and is valid up to…
We discuss the description of baryon as the dyonic instanton in holographic QCD. The solution generalizes the Skyrmion taking into account the infinite tower of vector and axial mesons as well as the chiral condensate. We construct the…
We construct analytic (3+1)-dimensional Skyrmions living at finite Baryon density in the SU(N) Skyrme model that are not trivial embeddings of SU(2) into SU(N). We used Euler angles decomposition for arbitrary N and the generalized hedgehog…
