Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we prove the existence of topologically non-trivial solutions of the two-dimensional Adkins–Nappi model of nuclear physics; to this end, we minimize the energy functional by using the classical Skyrme ansatz, as well as a non-radially symmetric generalization of it. In both cases, we show that the minimization procedure preserves the topological degree of the minimization sequence.
期刊介绍:
The Edinburgh Mathematical Society was founded in 1883 and over the years, has evolved into the principal society for the promotion of mathematics research in Scotland. The Society has published its Proceedings since 1884. This journal contains research papers on topics in a broad range of pure and applied mathematics, together with a number of topical book reviews.
