We study the Skyrmion of the $SO(2)$ gauged $O(3)$ sigma model in $2+1$ dimensions in the presence of a Skyrme--Chern-Simons (SCS) term, and compare its properties with the corresponding properties of the Skyrmion in the presence of the…

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…

Time crystals are unexpected states of matter that spontaneously break time translation symmetry either in a discrete or continuous manner. However, spatially-mesoscale space-time crystals that break both the space and time symmetries have…

We construct a stable Skyrmion in 3+1 dimensions as a sine-Gordon kink inside a domain wall within a domain wall in an O(4) sigma model with hierarchical mass terms without the Skyrme term. We also find that higher dimensional Skyrmions can…
