We consider the so called hyperon puzzle of neutron star (NS). We employ Skyrme force models for the description of in-medium nucleon-nucleon, nucleon-Lambda hyperon ($N\Lambda$), and Lambda-Lambda ($\Lambda\Lambda$) interactions. A…

As an alternative approach to the infinite-array description of dense matter in the Skyrme model, we report about the properties of a single skyrmion on a compact 3-sphere of finite radius. The density of this matter can be increased by…

In the Skyrme model atomic nuclei are modelled as quantized soliton solutions in a nonlinear field theory of pions. The mass number is given by the conserved topological charge $B$ of the solitons. Conventionally, Skyrmions are…

Asymmetric nuclear matter is treated in the formalism of Dirac-Brueckner approach with Bonn one-boson-exchange nucleon-nucleon interaction. We extract the symmetry energy coefficient at the saturation to be about 31 MeV, which is in good…
