We show that gravitating Merons in $D$-dimensional massive Yang-Mills theory can be mapped to solutions of the Einstein-Skyrme model. The identification of the solutions relies on the fact that, when considering the Meron ansatz for the…
We review the SU(2) Skyrme model and describe its topological soliton solutions, which are called Skyrmions. Skyrmions provide a model of nuclei in which the conserved topological charge is identified with the baryon number of a nucleus.…
The traditional approach to fixing the parameters of the Skyrme model requires the energy of a spinning Skyrmion to reproduce the nucleon and delta masses. The standard Skyrme parameters, which are used almost exclusively, fix the pion mass…
We show the existence of self-dual (topological) solitons in a gauged version of the baby Skyrme model in which the Born-Infeld term governs the gauge field dynamics. The successful implementation of the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield…
We introduce a Skyrme type, four dimensional Euclidean field theory made of a triplet of scalar fields n, taking values on the sphere S^2, and an additional real scalar field phi, which is dynamical only on a three dimensional surface…
We derive travelling soliton solutions of the $\sigma$ model, relevant for the description of dynamics of pions, in the high-energy, heavy-ion collisions. These extended objects are analogs of Ne$\grave{e}$l and Bloch type defects in…
We obtain localized field configurations with finite energy in a ($2+1$)-dimensional model with Maxwell and Chern-Simons gauge terms coupled to a massive complex scalar field. These non-topological solitons are characterized by the $U(1)$…
We consider the baby Skyrme model in a physically motivated limit of reaching the restricted or BPS baby Skyrme model, which is a model that enjoys area-preserving diffeomorphism invariance. The perturbation consists of the kinetic…
The scale invariance of the $O(3)$ sigma model can be broken by gauging a $U(1)$ subgroup of the $O(3)$ symmetry and including a Maxwell term for the gauge field in the Lagrangian. Adding also a suitable potential one obtains a field theory…
We study the loosely bound Skyrme model with the addition of two different pion mass terms; this is the most general potential of polynomial form up to second order in the trace of the Skyrme field. The two pion mass terms are called the…
We study effects of backreaction of the fermionic modes localized by the baby Skyrmion in the (2+1)-dimensional Skyrme model. It is shown that there is a tower of fermionic modes of two different types, localized by the soliton, however…
In this work, taking advantage of the Generalized Hedgehog Ansatz, we construct new self-gravitating solitons in a cavity with mirror-like boundary conditions for the SU(2) Non-linear Sigma Model and Skyrme model. For spherically symmetric…
We use a simulated annealing algorithm to find the static field configuration with the lowest energy in a given sector of topological charge for generalized SU(2) Skyrme models. These numerical results suggest that the following conjecture…
We perform full two-dimensional (2D) numerical relaxations of isospinning soliton solutions in the baby Skyrme model in which the global $O(3)$ symmetry is broken by the 2D analogue of the pion mass term in the Skyrme model. In our…
It is proved that the quantum-mechanical consideration of global breathing of a hedgehog-like field configuration leads to the dynamically stable soliton solutions in the nonlinear sigma-model without the Skyrme term. Such solutions exist…
The Skyrme model is considered quantum mechanically ab initio in various irreducible representations of the SU(2) group. The canonical quantization procedure yields negative mass correction ensuring existence of stabile soliton solution…

The gauge equivalent counterparts of the some (1+1)-, or (2+0)-dimensional sigma models with potentials are found. The gauge equivalence between the some soliton equations of spin-phonon systems and the Yajima-Oikawa and Ma equations are…
We consider a model of topological solitons where charged particles have finite mass and the electric charge is quantised already at the classical level. In the electrodynamic limit, which physically corresponds to electrodynamics of…
We investigate how isospin affects the geometrical shape and energy of classical soliton solutions of topological charges $B=1-4,8$ in the Skyrme model. The novel approach in our work is that we study classically isospinning Skyrmions…
