Code (Text):

$$f_{\mu}=\frac{\beta_{\mu}\psi\xi_{_{g}}}{\cosh^{2}\psi\xi} ,\hspace{2em} \xi=\xi_{_{T}}x^{0}+\xi_{_{S}}\sqrt{(x^{1})^{2}+(x^{2})^{2}+(x^{3})^{2}} ,\hspace{2em} \beta_{\mu},\:\xi_{_{g}}},\:\xi_{_{T}},\:\xi_{_{S}}\rightarrow constant$$

Is this f_{\mu} soliton ?

I don't think many people will be able to help if you are not gonna try to be a bit more clear. Elaborate on the context surrounding your question, please. Whithin what course are you seeing this ?

As far as i remember, you acquire a soliton solution (in 2+1 dimensional QFT) if your solution gives you a constant value at infinity (both + and - infinities) and if in between, there is a continuous evolution from the "minus-infinity constant" towards the "+ infinity constant". Both constants are equal in magnitude but have opposite signs and they correspond to the socalled "vacuum value" (degenerate lowest energy value).

Here's more
