Abstract:
The Skyrme model is a topological field theory that has been shown to be a good low energy
approximation to QCD. A particular quantum theoretical treatment of the
model reduces the quantization to a finite-dimensional quantum mechanical problem,
selecting significant degrees of freedom of the configuration and quantizing them.
A long-asked question has been how the quantized configuration differs from the
classical minimum.
