Length of excitable knots (2017)
Journal Article
Maucher, F., & Sutcliffe, P. (2017). Length of excitable knots. Physical Review E, 96(1), Article 012218. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.96.012218

In this paper, we present extensive numerical simulations of an excitable medium to study the long-term dynamics of knotted vortex strings for all torus knots up to crossing number 11. We demonstrate that FitzHugh-Nagumo evolution preserves the knot... Read More about Length of excitable knots.

Skyrmion knots in frustrated magnets (2017)
Journal Article
Sutcliffe, P. (2017). Skyrmion knots in frustrated magnets. Physical Review Letters, 118(24), Article 247203. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.118.247203

A magnetic Skyrmion is a stable two-dimensional nanoparticle describing a localized winding of the magnetization in certain magnetic materials. Skyrmions are the subject of intense experimental and theoretical investigation and have potential technol... Read More about Skyrmion knots in frustrated magnets.
