We analyse the effect of the canonical quantization of the rotational mode of the O(3) $\sigma$-model which includes the Skyrme term. Numerical evidence is presented that the quantum correction to the mass of the rotationally-invariant…
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…
This paper demonstrates that singularities form in the classical $(5+1)$-dimensional, co-rotational Skyrme model. It was recently proven by Chen, Sch\"orkhuber, and the author that the strong field limit of the $(5+1)$-dimensional,…
Skyrme chains are topologically-nontrivial solutions of the Skyrme model which are (quasi-)periodic in one spatial direction. We report numerical and analytic investigations which show that such solutions exist. Chains of 1-skyrmions are…
The out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the O(N+1) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions is investigated in the large N limit. Regarding the nonlinearity as the effect of a suitable large coupling limit of the O(N+1) \phi^4 model, we first of…
The paper, classically, presents an extended Klein-Gordon field system in 3+1 dimensions with a special Q-ball solution. The Q-ball solution is energetically stable, that is, for any arbitrary small deformation above the background of that,…
The $SO(4)\times U(1)$ Higgs model on $\R_4$ is extended by a $F^3$ term so that the action receives a nonvanishing contribution from the interactions of 2-instantons and 3-instantons, and can be expressed as the inverse of the Laplacian on…
We present a family of time-dependent solutions to 2+1 gravity with negative cosmological constant and a massless scalar field as source. These solutions are continuously self-similar near the central singularity. We analyze linear…
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 solve Einstein equations coupled to a complex scalar field with infinitely large self-interaction, degenerate fermions, and a negative cosmological constant in $(2+1)$ dimensions. Exact solutions for static boson-fermion stars are found…
Evolution of sphalerons in a class of quartic Klein-Gordon models are studied under a growing perturbation. Sphalerons are unstable lump-like solutions that arise from a saddle point between true and false vacua in the energy functional.…
We show that for a large class of evolutionary nonlinear and nonlocal partial differential equations, symmetry of solutions implies very restrictive properties of the solutions and symmetry axes. These restrictions are formulated in terms…
We study various properties of a perturbed signum-Gordon model, which has been obtained through the dimensional reduction of the called `first BPS submodel of the Skyrme model'. This study is motivated by the observation that the first BPS…
A non-linear sigma model mimicking the Skyrme model on S_3 is proposed and a family of classical solutions to the equations are constructed numerically. The solutions terminate into catastrophe-like spikes at critical values of the Skyrme…
We study a higher-dimensional thin film equation that incorporates competitive effects between aggregation and repulsion, where repulsion is modeled by fourth-order diffusion and aggregation by backward second-order degenerate diffusion,…
We find approximate solutions for the two-dimensional non-linear {\Sigma}-model with Dzyalioshinkii-Moriya term, representing magnetic Skyrmions. They are built in an analytic form, by pasting different approximate solutions found in…
We study the cosmological evolution of a type-0 string theory by employing non-criticality, which may be induced by fluctuations of the D3 brane worlds. We check the consistency of the approach to O(alpha ') in the corresponding…
Instantons are tunneling solutions that connect two vacua, and under a small change in the potential, instantons sometimes disappear. We classify these disappearances as smooth (decay rate goes to 0 at disappearance) or abrupt (decay rate…
Localized static solutions of the 2D-O(3) model are investigated in a representation with the 3-vector field $\vec Phi$ split into the unit vector $\hat Phi$ and the modulus $\Phi$. As in the nonlinear version of the model this allows for…
We study the stabilization of one spatial dimension in (p+1+1)-dimensional spacetime in the presence of $p$-dimensional brane(s), a bulk cosmological constant and the Casimir force generated by a conformally coupled scalar field. We find…
