Isorotating knots and baby Skyrmions

The problem of constructing internally rotating solitons of fixed angular frequency ω in the models of Skyrme family models is reformulated as a variational problem for an energylike functional, called pseudoenergy, which depends parametrically on the angular frequency ω. Different types of instabilities of the isospinning solitons are investigated.
