BPS deformations of the Skyrme model
arXiv:2011.14419 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.103.085018
Abstract
We study several deformations of the Skyrme model in three dimensions with self-dual sectors of arbitrary baryonic charge. We show that, for a family of background metrics as well as for a family of field dependent couplings, the model has one BPS sector, which may have any topological charge. We also study the gravitating case, where there are infinite BPS sectors, provided that a cosmological constant is added to the model.
