Theory of skyrmion states in liquid crystals: axisymmetric cholesteric bubbles (spherulites)
A. O. Leonov, I. E. Dragunov, U. K. Rößler +1
Within the Oseen-Frank theory we derive numerically exact solutions for axisymmetric localized states in chiral liquid crystal layers with homeotropic anchoring. These solutions de…

Chiral skyrmion states in non-centrosymmetric magnets
A. O. Leonov
Chiral skyrmion states exist in non - centrosymmetric magnetic crystals as a consequence of the asymmetric exchange Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions that destroy the homogeneous…

Skyrmion and helical states in thin layers of magnets and liquid crystals
A. O. Leonov
Novel types of barrel-shaped chiral skyrmions can exist as isolated topological defects or as bound states in magnetic nanolayers with intrinsic and surface/interface induced chira…
