Coverage area
1. Theoretical study : employing mathematical models and abstractions of a particular field in an attempt to explain known or
predicted phenomenon. E.g. : theoretical physics, mathematical physics, biomatter modeling, etc.
2. Computational science : constructing mathematical models, numerical solution techniques and using computers to analyze
and solve natural science, social science and engineering problems. E.g. : numerical simulations, model fitting and data
analysis, optimization, etc.
3. Cross-disciplinary studies : inter-disciplinary studies between theoretical study and computational science, including the
development of computing tools and apparatus. E.g. : macro development of Matlab, paralel processing, grid infrastructure,
etc.

Abstract : The basics concepts of soliton is briefly reviewwed from point of view of quantum and classical fields.
The solution of nonlinear wave equation, topological charges, Bogomolny analysis and a proposal of soliton as a particle
are given.
