Hyperbolic monopoles, JNR data and spectral curves (2014)
Journal Article
Bolognesi, S., Cockburn, A., & Sutcliffe, P. (2015). Hyperbolic monopoles, JNR data and spectral curves. Nonlinearity, 28(1), 211-235. https://doi.org/10.1088/0951-7715/28/1/211

A large class of explicit hyperbolic monopole solutions can be obtained from JNR instanton data, if the curvature of hyperbolic space is suitably tuned. Here we provide explicit formulae for both the monopole spectral curve and its rational map in te... Read More about Hyperbolic monopoles, JNR data and spectral curves.

Leapfrogging vortex rings in the Landau–Lifshitz equation (2014)
Journal Article
Niemi, A., & Sutcliffe, P. (2014). Leapfrogging vortex rings in the Landau–Lifshitz equation. Nonlinearity, 27(9), https://doi.org/10.1088/0951-7715/27/9/2095

Vortex rings are ubiquitous in fluids, with smoke rings being a familiar example. The interaction of multiple vortex rings produces complex dynamical behaviour, such as the leapfrogging motion first analysed by Helmholtz more than a century and a hal...

A low-dimensional analogue of holographic baryons (2014)
Journal Article
Bolognesi, S., & Sutcliffe, P. (2014). A low-dimensional analogue of holographic baryons. Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 47(13), https://doi.org/10.1088/1751-8113/47/13/135401

Baryons in holographic QCD correspond to topological solitons in the bulk. The most prominent example is the Sakai–Sugimoto model, where the bulk soliton in the five-dimensional spacetime of AdS-type can be approximated by the flat space self-dual Ya...

The Sakai-Sugimoto soliton (2014)
Journal Article
Bolognesi, S., & Sutcliffe, P. (2014). The Sakai-Sugimoto soliton. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014(1), Article 78. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282014%29078

The Sakai-Sugimoto model is the preeminent example of a string theory de- scription of holographic QCD, in which baryons correspond to topological solitons in the bulk. Here we investigate the validity of various approximations of the Sakai-Sugimoto... Read More about The Sakai-Sugimoto soliton.

Platonic hyperbolic monopoles (2014)
Journal Article
Manton, N., & Sutcliffe, P. (2014). Platonic hyperbolic monopoles. Communications in Mathematical Physics, 325(3), 821-845. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00220-013-1864-1

We construct a number of explicit examples of hyperbolic monopoles, with various charges and often with some platonic symmetry. The fields are obtained from instanton data in R 4 that are invariant under a circle action, and in most cases the monopol... Read More about Platonic hyperbolic monopoles.
