2 00 5 Toroidal Solitons in Nicole - type Models
نویسنده
چکیده
A family of modified Nicole models is introduced. We show that for particular members of the family a topological soliton with a non-trivial value of the Hopf index exists. The form of the solitons as well as their energy and topological charge is explicitly found. They appear to be identical as the so-called eikonal knots. The relation between energy and topological charge of the solution is also presented. Quite interesting it seems to differ drastically from the standard Vakulenko-Kapitansky formula.

We study soliton solutions of the Nicole model-a non-linear four-dimensional field theory consisting of the CP 1 Lagrangian density to the non-integer power 3 2-using an ansatz within toroidal coordinates, which is indicated by the conformal symmetry of the static equations of motion. We calculate the soliton energies numerically and find that they grow linearly with the topological charge (Hop...
متن کاملKnot Solitons
The existence of ring-like and knotted solitons in O(3) non-linear σ model is analysed. The role of isotopy of knots/links in classifying such solitons is pointed out. Appearance of torus knot solitons is seen. †[email protected]; [email protected] †† permanent address Introduction: Recently the possible existence of knotlike solitons in nonlinear field theories has been argued[1, 2]. ...
متن کامل5 M ay 2 00 8 Geometry and topology of the quasi - plane Szekeres model
Geometrical and topological properties of the quasi-plane Szekeres model and of the plane symmetric dust model are discussed. Some related comments on the quasihyperbolical model are made. These properties include: (1) The pattern of expansion in the plane symmetric case, and the Newtonian model that imitates it; (2) The possibility of toroidal topology of the t = const sections in the plane sy...
