Abstract

Finite energy solitary wave solutions obtained by Polyakov and Belavin for the isotropic 2-dimensional ferromagnet are briefly reviewed. The ideas of Bogomolnyi connecting the winding number and potential energy of the system play an important role in the discussion.

Notes taken and prepared by M. Daniel.
