Reduced dynamics of Ward solitons

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The moduli space of static finite energy solutions to Ward's integrable chiral model is the space MN of based rational maps from CP1 to itself with degree N. The Lagrangian of Ward's model gives rise to a K"ahler metric and a magnetic vector potential on this space. However, the magnetic field strength vanishes, and the approximate non--relativistic solutions to Ward's model correspond to a geodesic motion on MN. These solutions can be compared with exact solutions which describe non--scattering or scattering solitons.
