Three dimensional SO(3) gauged Skyrme models characterised by specific potentials imposing special asymptotic values on the chiral field are considered. These models are shown to support finite energy solutions with nonvanishing magnetic…
We compute new solutions of the Skyrme model with massive pions. Concentrating on baryon numbers which are a multiple of four, we find low energy Skyrmion solutions which are composed of charge four sub-units, as in the alpha-particle model…
We revisit baryons in the Skyrme model. Starting from static baryons in the helicity eigenstates, we generalize their wavefunctions to the non-static and relativistic regime. A new representation for gamma matrices in the soliton collective…
In a finite volume, resonances and multi-hadron states are identified by discrete energy levels. When comparing the results of lattice QCD calculations to scattering experiments, it is important to have a way of associating the energy…
We develop a scheme to prepare a desired state or subspace in high-dimensional Hilbert-spaces using repeated applications of a single static projection operator onto the desired target and fixed unitary dynamics. Benchmarks against other…
An approach to realize a hyperon as a bound-state of a two-flavor baryon and a kaon is considered in the context of the Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD, which approach has been known in the Skyrme model as the bound-state approach…
The unstable manifold of the B=2 sector of the Skyrme model is constructed numerically using the gradient-flow method. Following paths of steepest descent from the B=2 hedgehog, we apply a collective coordinate description for the motion on…
Skyrmions are topological defects belonging to nontrivial homotopy classes in particle theory. Their remarkably stable topology has recently been observed in electromagnetic waves. For the evanescent fields near a surface, this has been…
We constrain the $S$-wave baryon-baryon interaction using SU(6) symmetry within a nonrelativistic effective field theory. The most general leading-order Lagrangian contains two independent parameters, which we determine using physical $NN$…
The quantum Skyrme model is considered in non canonical bases SU(3) > SO(3) for the state vectors. A rational map ansatz is used to describe the soliton with the topological number bigger than one. The canonical quantization of the…
The rational map ansatz of Houghton et al \cite{HMS} is generalised by allowing the profile function, usually a function of $r$, to depend also on $z$ and $\bar{z}$. It is shown that, within this ansatz, the energies of the lowest $B=2,3,4$…
In a broad range of applied magnetic fields and material parameters isolated magnetic skyrmions condense into skyrmion lattices. While the geometry of isolated skyrmions and their lattice counterparts strongly depend on field and…
Recently we have presented in hep-th/9811071 an ansatz which allows us to construct skyrmion fields from the harmonic maps of $S\sp2$ to $CP\sp{N-1}$. In this paper we examine this construction in detail and use it to construct, in an…
The phenomenological consequences of the existence of different local minima in SU(3) configuration space of B=2 skyrmions are discussed.
In this paper, we will describe recent advances in analytical methods to construct exact solutions of the Skyrme model (and its generalizations) representing inhomogeneous Hadronic condensates living at finite Baryon density. Such novel…
We study the structure of minimal-energy solutions of the baby Skyrme models for any topological charge n; the baby multi-skyrmions. Unlike in the (3+1)D nuclear Skyrme model, a potential term must be present in the (2+1)D Skyrme model to…
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…

An omega-meson extension of the Skyrme model - without the Skyrme term but including the pion mass - first considered by Adkins and Nappi is studied in detail for baryon numbers 1 to 8. The static problem is reformulated as a constrained…
We use the generalised rational map ansatz introduced by Ioannidou et al. to construct analytically some topologically non-trivial solutions of the generalised SU(3) Skyrme model defined by adding a sixth order term to the usual Lagrangian.…
