We have obtained an exact vacuum solution from a gravity sector contained in the minimal standard-model extension. The theoretical model assumes a Riemann spacetime coupled to the bumblebee field which is responsible for the spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking. The solution achieved in a static and spherically symmetric scenario establishes a Schwarzschild-like black hole. In order to study the effects of the spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking, we have investigated some classics tests including the advance of the perihelion, bending of light and Shapiro's time-delay. Furthermore, we have computed some upper-bounds from which the most stringent one attains a sensitivity at the 10 −13 level.
We have shown the existence of self-dual solitons in a type of generalized Chern-Simons baby Skyrme model where the generalized function (depending only in the Skyrme field) is coupled to the sigma-model term. The consistent implementation of the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) formalism requires the generalizing function becomes the superpotential defining properly the selfdual potential. Thus, we have obtained a topological energy lower-bound (Bogomol'nyi bound) and the self-dual equations satisfied by the fields saturating such a bound. The Bogomol'nyi bound being proportional to the topological charge of the Skyrme field is quantized whereas the total magnetic flux is not. Such as expected in a Chern-Simons model the total magnetic flux and the total electrical charge are proportional to each other. Thus, by considering the superpotential a wellbehaved function in the whole target space we have shown the existence of three types of self-dual solutions: compacton solitons, soliton solutions whose tail decays following an exponential-law e −αr 2 (α > 0), and solitons having a power-law decay r −β (β > 0). The profiles of the two last solitons can exhibit a compactonlike behavior. The self-dual equations have been solved numerically and we have depicted the soliton profiles, commenting on the main characteristics exhibited by them.
We have studied the existence de self-dual solitons in a gauged version of the baby Skyrme model in which the gauge field dynamics is governed by the Maxwell-Chern-Simons action. For such a purpose, we have developed a detailed implementation of the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield formalism providing the self-dual equations whose solutions saturate the energy lower bound. Such a bound related to the topological charge of the Skyrme field becomes quantized whereas both the total magnetic flux and the total electrical charge are not. We have found two types of self-dual Skyrme field profiles: the first is described by a solution which decays following an exponential-law (e −αr 2 , α > 0); the second is portrayed by a solution having a power-law decay (r −β , β > 0). On other hand, in both cases the asymptotic behavior of the gauge field is similar to the one presented in the context of the Abelian Higgs models describing Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen charged vortices. Other interesting feature we highlight is the localized magnetic flux inversion, a property does not observed in others gauged baby Skyrme models already studied in literature. Numerical results are presented for rotationally symmetrical field configurations by remarking some of its essential features.
We investigate the existence of self-dual solitons with internal structure in a gauged Oð3Þ nonlinear sigma model immersed in a dielectric medium generated by a real scalar field (dubbed the source field). We consider rotationally symmetric configurations and applying the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield formalism to obtain the energy lower bound and the respective first-order differential equations (or selfdual equations). By solving such a system of equations for three different dielectric media, we find the internal structure generates relevant changes in the soliton profiles when compared with the ones obtained without the presence of the dielectric medium.
