A new method is introduced to construct approximations to Skyrmions that are explicit rational functions of the spatial Cartesian coordinates. The scheme uses ADHM data of a Yang-Mills instanton to produce a Skyrmion with a baryon number…
Based on the intanton approximation of Skyrmion and recent progresses on the holographic approach, we study baryon properties using Skyrmions generated from holographic instantons. First we employ Atiyah and Manton's early observation to…
We generalize the approach of Atiyah and Manton for generating Skyrmion configurations from instantons. The result is a series which parameters are found directly from the chiral angle equation. The series converge rapidly to the exact…
The classical Yang-Mills equations are solved for arbitrary semi-simple gauge groups in the Schwinger-Fock gauge. A new class of SU(N) instantons is presented which are not embeddings of SU(N-1) instantons but have non-trivial SU(N) color…
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…
An unified approximated solution for symmetric Skyrmions was proposed for the SU(2) Skyrme model for baryon numbers up to 8,which take the hybrid form of a kink-like solution and that given by the instanton method. The Skyrmion profiles are…
We propose, via the Atiyah-Manton approximation, a framework for studying skyrmions on $\mathbb{R}^3$ using ADHM data for Yang-Mills instantons on $\mathbb{R}^4$. We provide a dictionary between important concepts in the Skyrme model and…
We provide a step-by-step method to construct skyrmions from instanton ADHM data, including when the exact ADHM data is unknown. The configurations look like clusters of smaller skyrmions, and can be used to build manifolds of skyrmions…
Some years ago, Atiyah and Manton described a method to construct approximate Skyrmion solutions from Yang-Mills instantons. Here we present a dynamical realization of this construction using domain walls in a five-dimensional gauge theory.…
We propose how to approach, and report on the first results in our effort for, describing nuclear matter starting from the solitonic picture of baryons which is supposed to represent QCD for large number of colors. For this purpose, the…
In this paper the SU(N) Einstein-Skyrme system is considered. We express the chiral field (which is not a simple embedding of the SU(2) one) in terms of harmonic maps. In this way, SU(N) spherical symmetric equations can be obtained easily…
The holonomy of an SU(2) N-instanton in the x^4-direction gives a map from R^3 into SU(2), which provides a good model of an N-Skyrmion. Combining this map with the standard Hopf map from SU(2)=S^3 to S^2 gives a configuration for a Hopf…
We present the idea of using the holonomy along a line of a constrained instanton solution (an approximate solution of the Euclidean equations of motion subject to a constraint) of an $\rm SU(2)$ Yang-Mills-Higgs theory to approximate the…
It has been proposed by Atiyah and Manton that the dynamics of Skyrmions may be approximated by motion on a finite dimensional manifold obtained from the moduli space of SU(2) Yang-Mills instantons. Motivated by this work we describe how…
The JNR ansatz provides a simple formula to obtain families of charge N self-dual SU(2) Yang-Mills instantons in four-dimensional Euclidean space, from the free data of N+1 distinct points with associated positive weights. Here an analogous…
We propose a construction of Skyrme fields from holonomy of the spin connection of gravitational instantons. The procedure is implemented for Atiyah-Hitchin and Taub-NUT instantons. The skyrmion resulting from the Taub-NUT is given…

Starting from solutions of the lightly-bound Skyrme model, we construct many new Skyrmion solutions of the standard Skyrme model with tetrahedral or octahedral symmetry. These solutions are closely related to weight diagrams of the group…
