More than just a name? From magnetic to optical skyrmions and the topology of light
Abstract Topology is usually perceived intrinsically immutable for a given object. We argue that optical topologies do not immediately enjoy such benefits. Using ‘optical skyrmions’ as an example, we show that they will exhibit varying textures and topological invariants (skyrmion numbers), dependin...
