Stationary ring solitons in field theory - knots and vortons

TL;DR: In this paper, the current status of the problem of constructing classical field theory solutions describing stationary vortex rings in Minkowski space in 3+1 dimensions is reviewed, and the first explicit construction of global vortons as solutions of the elliptic boundary value problem is presented, which demonstrates their non-radiating character.

Topological and Non-Topological Solitons in Scalar Field Theories

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an introduction to integrable and non-integrable scalar field models with topological and nontopological soliton solutions focusing on both topologically and non topological solitons, bringing together debates around solitary waves and construction of soliton solution in various models and providing a discussion of soliton using simple model examples.

Exact static soliton solutions of (3+1)-dimensional integrable theory with nonzero Hopf numbers

TL;DR: In this paper, an infinite number of Hopfions (static, soliton solutions with non-zero Hopf topological charges) were constructed explicitly in terms of the toroidal coordinates and shown to have a form of linked closed vortices.

k-defects as compactons

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that topological compactons may be quite common objects if k-fields with nonstandard kinetic term are considered, by showing that even for models with well-behaved potentials the unusual kinetic part may lead to a power-like approach to the vacuum, which is a typical signal for the existence of compactons.

Stable knot-like structures in classical field theory

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that knots can emerge as stable, finite-energy solutions in a local, three-dimensional langrangian field-theory model, which can be used to describe a large number of physical, chemical and biological systems.

Knots and Particles

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that all torus knots appear as solitons in a 3+1 dimensional model, and the results were extended to the case of 3He superfluids.

Rational maps, monopoles and skyrmions

TL;DR: In this paper, the similarities between BPS monopoles and Skyrmions were discussed, and an underlying connection in terms of rational maps between Riemann spheres was made.

Knots as stable soliton solutions in a three-dimensional classical field theory.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine recent claims that knot-like structures exist in a simple classical field theory which are stabilized by the Hopf charge and present minimum energy configurations for charges one to eight generated numerically.
