JNR Skyrmions

Abstract
The JNR ansatz provides a simple formula to obtain families of charge N self-dual SU(2) Yang-Mills instantons in four-dimensional Euclidean space, from the free data of N+1 distinct points with associated positive weights. Here an analogous formula is presented for Skyrme fields in three-dimensional Euclidean space. These families of Skyrme fields include good approximations to a range of Skyrmions, with energies that are typically within a few percent of the numerically computed solutions.
