Model with solitons in (2+1) dimensions

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

We consider various models in (2+1) dimensions which possess soliton-like solutions. We discuss the additional terms that must be added to the conventionalS 2 model in order that its solutions are stable and so can be treated as solitons. The role of various terms is analysed and some properties of the solitonic solutions are discussed.
