In QCD at large enough isospin chemical potential Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) takes place, separated from the normal phase by a phase transition. From previous studies the location of the BEC line at the physical point is known. In the…
We show that the stability of three-dimensional Skyrmions in trapped Bose-Einstein condensates depends critically on scattering lengths, atom numbers, trap rotation and trap anisotropy. In particular, for the $^{87}$Rb $|F=1,m_{f}=-1>$,…
We study the vibrational modes of Skyrmions with baryon numbers one through eight in the standard Skyrme model. The vibrational modes are found in the harmonic approximation around the classical soliton solution and the real parts of the…

In chiral soliton models for baryons the computation of hadronic decay widths of baryon resonances is a long standing problem. For the three flavor Skyrme model I present a solution to this problem that satisfies large--$N_C$ consistency…
The Skyrme-Faddeev model has planar soliton solutions with target space $\mathbb{C}P^N$. An Abelian Chern-Simons term (the Hopf term) in the Lagrangian of the model plays a crucial role for the statistical properties of the solutions.…
We present the creation and time evolution of two-dimensional Skyrmion excitations in an antiferromagnetic spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. Using a spin rotation method, the Skyrmion spin textures were imprinted on a sodium condensate in a…
We consider two-component Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) and introduce the BEC vortex in $1+2$ dimensions. We focus on two types of gapped excitations induced by the modes of two-component BECs with relative phases of $0$ and $\pi$,…
In this paper, we study the baryons and solitons of chiral and vector-like $SU(N)$ gauge theories with matter in mixed one and two-index representations. Focusing on the Color-flavor locked (CFL) phase, we compute the topology of the coset…
The mass spectrum and magnetic moments of \Xi and \Omega baryon resonances are investigated in the bound state approach of the Skyrme model. The empirical hyperon spectrum shows that several hyperon resonances share a pattern of…
Skyrmions are stable and topologically non-trivial field configurations that behave like localized particles. They appear in the chiral effective theory for pions, where they correspond to the baryon states, and might also exist in the…
We introduce topologically stable three-dimensional skyrmions in the cyclic and biaxial nematic phases of a spin-2 Bose-Einstein condensate. These skyrmions exhibit exceptionally high mapping degrees resulting from the versatile symmetries…

A crossover between the Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) and BCS superconducting state is described topologically in the chiral symmetric fermion system with attractive interaction. Using a local Z_2 Berry phase, we found a quantum phase…
We study static solutions of the Skyrme model on the two-sphere of radius L, for various choices of potential. The high-density Skyrmion phase corresponds to the ratio beta=L/(size of Skyrmion) being small, whereas the low-density phase…
The Skyrme model is a low energy effective field theory of strong interactions where nuclei and baryons appear as collective excitations of pionic degrees of freedom. In the last years, there has been a revival of Skyrme's ideas and new…
We study the SU(3) extension of the Skyrme model with vector mesons in the collective quantization scheme. The parameters of the model are fixed in its mesonic sector. Fields which are excited by the collective rotation of the classical…
We show that the standard Skyrme model without pion mass term can be expressed as a sum of two BPS submodels, i.e., of two models whose static field equations, independently, can be reduced to first order equations. Further, these first…
