Asymmetric Skyrmion lattice in helimagnets

Intricate spin textures in helimagnets, identified as stable topological Skyrmions, were observed experimentally, where Skyrme lattice was supposed to exhibit symmetric structures in the ground state. We show the possibility of asymmetric Skyrmions in a helimagnetic model, for individual Skyrmion as well as for the hexagonal Skyrme crystal with higher charge, as perturbative deformation and stabilization of exact ferromagnetic solitons. Such nonsymmetric configurations for the Skyrme lattice, predicted here theoretically, need to be verified in precision experiments.
