Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary:Solitons in liquid crystals have generated considerable interest. Several hypotheses of varying complexity have been advanced to explain how they emerge, and a consensus has not emerged yet about the underlying forces responsible for their formation or their structure. In this work, we present a minimal model for soliton […]
