چکیده

The Skyrme-Faddeev model is a modified sigma model in three-dimensional space, which has string-like topological solitons classified by the integer-valued Hopf charge. Numerical simulations are performed to compute soliton solutions for Hopf charges up to sixteen, with initial conditions provided by families of rational maps from the threesphere into the complex projective line. A large number of new solutions are presented, including a variety of torus knots for a range of Hopf charges. Often these knots are only local energy minima, with the global minimum being a linked solution, but for some values of the Hopf charge they are good candidates for the global minimum energy solution. The computed energies are in agreement with Ward’s conjectured

A method to solve the static field equation of the Faddeev model is presented. For an special combination of the concerned field, we adopt a form which is compatible with the field equation and involves two arbitrary complex functions. As a result, the static field equation is reduced to a set of first order partial differential equations. ——————————————————————————————— Corresponding author: C...

New Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations are reported for 6 ΛΛ He and 10 ΛΛ Be in terms of clusters of α's and Λ's, using ΛΛ s-wave potentials motivated by several of the Nijmegen model interactions. The self consistency of the ΛΛ hypernuclear world data for these species is discussed. The newly reported 6 ΛΛ He event is found to be compatible with ΛΛ interaction strengths provided by the Nijmegen s...

We present a new stationary, asymptotically flat solution of 5D EinsteinMaxwell gravity describing a Saturn-like black object: a rotating black hole surrounded by a rotating dipole black ring. The solution is generated by combining the vacuum black Saturn solution and the vacuum black ring solution with appropriately chosen parameters. Some basic properties of the solution are analyzed and the ...

We construct static, asymptotically flat solutions of SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in 4 + 1 dimensions, subject to bi-azimuthal symmetry. Both particle-like and black hole solutions are considered for two different sets of boundary conditions in the Yang–Mills sector, corresponding to multisolitons and soliton-antisoliton pairs. For gravitating multi-soliton solutions, we find that their ma...
