We show that coupling the $\textrm{SU}(2)$-valued Skyrme field to the $\rho$-meson solves the long-standing issue of (in)compressibility in the solitonic Skyrme model. Even by including only one $\rho\pi$ interaction term, motivated by a…
We provide a systematic way of dimensional reduction for $(4+2n)$-dimensional $U(N)$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theories ($n=0,1,2,3$) and their mixtures compactified on two-dimensional tori with background magnetic fluxes, which…
We obtain static selfgravitating solitonic 3-brane solutions in the Einstein-Skyrme model in 7D. These solitons correspond to a smooth version of the previously discussed cosmic p-brane solutions. We show how the energy momentum tensor of…
We give the exact solution of classical equation of motion of a quartic scalar massless field theory showing that this is massive and is represented by a superposition of free particle solutions with a discrete spectrum. Then we show that…
A scalar field, $\eta({\bf r})$, is coupled to the skyrmion. Its classical value in the vacuum ("condensate") reduces to the pion decay constant, $f_{\pi}$, being thus proportional to the chiral condensate $<\bar{q} q>$. A quadratic…
We consider the classical static soliton solutions of the Skyrme model with false vacuum potential. We make use of fully three-dimensional relaxation calculations to construct global energy minimizers in the sectors of topological degrees…
Within the set of generalized Skyrme models, we identify a submodel which has both infinitely many symmetries and a Bogomolny bound which is saturated by infinitely many exact soliton solutions. Concretely, the submodel consists of the…
The self-gravitating skyrmion is an exact solution of the Einstein $SU(2)$-Skyrme model describing a topological soliton with baryon number $B=1$, living in a $4$-dimensional space-time in the presence of a cosmological constant. Here we…
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…
We study a semi-linear version of the Skyrme system due to Adkins and Nappi. The objects in this system are maps from $(1+3)$-dimensional Minkowski space into the $3$-sphere and 1-forms on $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$, coupled via a Lagrangian…
We consider the ${\cal N}=1$ Skyrme model and obtain supersymmetric skyrmion solutions numerically. The model necessarily contains higher derivative terms and as a result the field equation becomes a fourth-order differential equation.…
Three exact solutions say $\phi_0$ of massless scalar theories on Euclidean space, i.e. $D=6 \phi^3$, $D=4 \phi^4$ and $D=3 \phi^6$ models are obtained which share similar properties. The information geometry of their moduli spaces coincide…
A new discrete-velocity model is presented to solve the three-dimensional Euler equations. The velocities in the model are of an adaptive nature---both the origin of the discrete-velocity space and the magnitudes of the discrete-velocities…
We introduce a general class of four-dimensional effective field theories which include curved space Galileons and DBI theories possessing nonlinear shift-like symmetries. These effective theories arise from purely gravitational actions for…
In multi-scalar field cosmologies new dynamical degrees of freedom are introduced which can explain the observational phenomena. Unlike the usual scalar field theory where a single scalar field is considered, the multi-scalar field…
We develop a one-parameter family of static baby Skyrme models that do not require a potential term to admit topological solitons. This is a novel property as the standard baby Skyrme model must contain a potential term in order to have…
We look for cosmologies with a scalar field (dark energy without cosmological constant), which mimic the standard $\Lambda CDM$ cosmological model yielding exactly the same large-scale geometry described by the evolution of the Hubble…
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…
D=4, N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory has an off-shell superspace formulation in terms of pure spinor superfields, which is directly inherited from the D=10 theory. That superspace, in particular the choice of pure spinor variables, is less…
The use in the action integral of totally divergent densities in generally coordinate invariant theories can lead to interesting mechanisms of spontaneous symmetry breaking of scale invariance. With dependence in the action on a metric…
