Optically Induced Monopoles, Knots, and Skyrmions in Quantum Gases
Toni Annala, Tommi Mikkonen, Mikko Möttönen
We propose, and theoretically analyze, a practical protocol for the creation of topological monopole configurations, quantum knots, and skyrmions in Bose--Einstein condensates by e…
Topologically Protected Vortex Knots in an Experimentally Realizable System
Hermanni Rajamäki, Toni Annala, Mikko Möttönen
Ordered media often support vortex structures with intriguing topological properties. Here, we investigate non-Abelian vortices in tetrahedral order, which appear in the cyclic pha…
Bordism invariants of colored links and topologically protected tricolorings
Toni Annala, Hermanni Rajamäki, Mikko Möttönen
We construct invariants of colored links using equivariant bordism groups of Conner and Floyd. We employ this bordism invariant to find the first examples of topological vortex kno…
