Topological Solitons.
Manton, Nicholas.

Topological Solitons.[electronic resource]. - Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2004. - 507 p.

Cover; Half-title; Series-title; Title; Copyright; Contents; Preface; 1 Introduction; 1.1 Solitons as particles; 1.2 A brief history of topological solitons; 1.3 Bogomolny equations and moduli spaces; 1.4 Soliton dynamics; 1.5 Solitons and integrable systems; 1.6 Solitons – experimental status; 1.7 Outline of this book; 2 Lagrangians and fields; 2.1 Finite-dimensional systems; 2.2 Symmetries and conservation laws; 2.3 Field theory; 2.4 Noether’s theorem in field theory; 2.5 Vacua and spontaneous symmetry breaking; 2.6 Gauge theory; 2.7 The Higgs mechanism; 2.8 Gradient flow in field theory

This book introduces the main examples of topological solitons in classical field theories, discusses the forces between solitons, and surveys both static and dynamic multi-soliton solutions. It covers kinks in one dimension, lumps and vortices in two dimensions, monopoles and Skyrmions in three dimensions, and instantons in four dimensions.
