Topological Classification of Non-Normalizable Vector Fields
Philipp Gessler, Alessandro Pignedoli, Alexander Neuhaus +3
Topological classification of physical vector fields conventionally relies on field normalization and homotopy-based invariants. However, when field amplitudes vanish, normalizatio…

Numerical Calculation of the Hopf Index for 3D Magnetic Textures
Ross Knapman, Maria Azhar, Alessandro Pignedoli +4
To gain deeper insight into the complex, stable, and robust configurations of magnetic textures, topological characterisation has proven essential. In particular, while the skyrmio…
