The O(3) Skyrme system in two space dimensions admits topological soliton solutions. This paper studies the transition between the high-density crystalline phase of such solitons and the low-density phase where there are multi-Skyrmions localized in space. The details depend crucially on the choice of the potential function. Two such choices are investigated: in the first system, multi-Skyrmion...

The Seiberg-Witten limit of fermionic N=2 string theory with nonvanishing B-field is governed by noncommutative self-dual Yang-Mills theory (ncSDYM) in 2+2 dimensions. Conversely, the self-duality equations are contained in the equation of motion of N=2 string field theory in a B-field background. Therefore finding solutions to noncommutative self-dual Yang-Mills theory on R2,2 might help to im...

We derive the soliton matrices corresponding to an arbitrary number of higherorder normal zeros for the matrix Riemann–Hilbert problem of arbitrary matrix dimension, thus giving the complete solution to the problem of higher-order solitons. Our soliton matrices explicitly give all higher-order multisoliton solutions to the nonlinear partial differential equations integrable through the matrix R...

We consider a special class of solutions of the BKP hierarchy which we call τ -functions of hypergeometric type. These are series in Schur Q-functions over partitions, with coefficients parameterised by a function of one variable ξ, where the quantities ξ(k), k ∈ Z, are integrals of motion of the BKP hierarchy. We show that this solution is, at the same time, a infinite soliton solution of a du...

The paper addresses a new “inverse” problem for reconstructing the amplitudes of 2D surface waves from observation of the wave patterns (formed by wave crests). These patterns will depend on the amplitudes because of nonlinear effects. We show that the inverse problem can be solved when the waves are modelled by an equation that supports soliton solutions. Specifically, the explicit solution to...

It is shown that a gauged nonlinear O(3) sigma model with anomalous magnetic moment interaction in 2 + 1 dimensions is exactly integrable for static, self-dual field configurations. The matter fields are exactly equivalent to those of the usual ungauged nonlinear O(3) sigma model. These static soliton solutions can be mapped into an Abelian purely magnetic vortex solutions through a suitable re...

In this work, the generalized (2+1) and (3+1)-dimensional Calogero-Bogoyavlenskii-Schiff equations are studied. We employ the Cole-Hopf transformation and the Hirota bilinear method to derive multiple-soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions for these equations. The necessary conditions for complete integrability of each equation are derived.

We show that the nonlinear equation that describes nonparaxial Kerr propagation, together with the already reported bright-soliton solutions, admits of (1 + 1)D dark-soliton solutions. Unlike their paraxial counterparts, dark solitons can be excited only if their asymptotic normalized intensity u2infinity is below 3/7; their width becomes constant when u2infinity approaches this value.

By using solutions of an ordinary differential equation, an auxiliary equationmethod is described to seek exact solutions of variablecoefficient KdV-MKdV equation. As a result, more new exact nontravelling solutions, which include soliton solutions, combined soliton solutions, triangular periodic solutions, Jacobi elliptic function solutions, and combined Jacobi elliptic function solutions, for...
