The Skyrme model is a classical field theory which has topological soliton solutions. These solitons are candidates for describing nuclei, with an identification between the numbers of solitons and nucleons. We have computed numerically,…
The skyrmion number density, $q\equiv\vec{n}\cdot\left(\partial_x\vec{n}\times\partial_y\vec{n}\right)/(4\pi)$, is one of the key quantities that characterizes the topological properties of a magnetic skyrmion. In this work, we propose a…
We study the moduli space of M-theories compactified on G_2 manifolds which are asymptotic to a cone over quotients of S^3 x S^3. We show that the moduli space is composed of several components, each of which interpolates smoothly among…
The present paper introduces the concept of monotone Hopf-harmonics in $2D$ as an alternative to harmonic homeomorphisms. It opens a new area of study in Geometric Function Theory (GFT). Much of the foregoing is motivated by the principle…
In this paper, we provide a rigorous description of the birth of canard limit cycles in slow-fast systems in $\mathbb R^3$ through the folded saddle-node of type II and the singular Hopf bifurcation. In particular, we prove -- in the…
The magnetic Skyrmion is described by one control parameter and one length scale. We study the two extreme limits of the control parameter - infinitely large and vanishing - and find that the magnetic Skyrmion becomes a "restricted"…
In \cite {HO1}, it was shown that there is a topology on $\C^2\sqcup S^3$ homeomorphic to a 4-ball such that the H\'enon mapping extends continuously. That paper used a delicate analysis of some asymptotic expansions, for instance, to…
We give a classification of compact solitons for the pluriclosed flow on complex surfaces. First, by exploiting results from the Kodaira classification of surfaces, we show that the complex surface underlying a soliton must be K\"ahler…
We construct stable domain walls in a shape of a torus in the Faddeev-Skyrme model with a quadratic potential term admitting two discrete vacua. The phase modulus of the domain wall is twisted P and Q times along the toroidal and poloidal…
We consider the complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation on a compact K\"ahler manifold $(M, g)$ when the right hand side $F$ has rather weak regularity. In particular we prove that estimate of $\t\phi$ and the gradient estimate hold when $F$ is in…
A magnetic Hopfion is a three-dimensional topological soliton that consists of a closed loop of a twisted magnetic Skyrmion string. The results of numerical simulations are presented that demonstrate the existence of a stable Hopfion in a…
Generalisations of the 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole which can exhibit repulsion only, attraction only, and both attraction and repulsion, between like monopoles, are studied numerically. The models supporting these solitons are SO(3) gauged…
Hopf bifurcation in networks of coupled ODEs creates periodic states in which the relative phases of nodes are well defined near bifurcation. When the network is a fully inhomogeneous nearest-neighbour coupled unidirectional ring, and node…
In this paper, we study topological properties of 3D lattice dimer model. We demonstrate, that the dimer model on a bipartite lattice possesses topological defects, which are exactly characterized by Hopf invariant. We derive its explicit…
Low-lying multibaryon configurations are studied within the bound state approach to the SU(3) Skyrme model. We use approximate ansaetze for the static background fields based on rational maps which have the same symmetries of the exact…
We construct new smooth solutions to the Hull-Strominger system, showing that the Fu-Yau solution on torus bundles over K3 surfaces can be generalized to torus bundles over K3 orbifolds. In particular, we prove that, for $13 \leq k \leq 22$…
We exhibit many examples of closed symplectic manifolds on which there is an autonomous Hamiltonian whose associated flow has no nonconstant periodic orbits (the only previous explicit example in the literature was the torus T^2n (n\geq 2)…
In the continuum O(3) sigma model in two spatial dimensions, there are topological solitons whose size can be stabilized by adding Skyrme and potential terms. This paper describes a lattice version, namely a natural way of modifying the 2d…
We examine nonlinear sigma models, in particular the Skyrme model with a twist (the twisted Skyrmion string), which comprises a vortex solution with an added dependence on a twist term $mkz$, where $z$ is the vertical coordinate. The…
We investigate the relation between the BPS baby Skyrme model and its vector meson formulation, where the baby Skyrme term is replaced by a coupling between the topological current $B_\mu$ and the vector meson field $\omega_\mu$. The vector…
