We show that skyrmions on the surface of a magnetic topological insulator may experience an attractive interaction that leads to the formation of a skyrmion-skyrmion bound state. This is in contrast to the case of skyrmions in a…

We report simulation results of skyrmions on fluctuating 2D lattices, where the vertices ${\bf r}_i (\in {\bf R}^3)$ are treated as a dynamical variable and, hence, there is no crystalline structure. On the fluctuating surfaces, an external…
