Abstract
We study a semi-linear version of the Skyrme system due to Adkins and Nappi. The objects in this system are maps from $$(1+3)$$(1+3)-dimensional Minkowski space into the 3-sphere and 1-forms on $$\mathbb {R}^{1+3}$$R1+3, coupled via a Lagrangian action. Under a co-rotational symmetry reduction we establish the existence, uniqueness, and unconditional asymptotic stability of a family of stationary solutions $$Q_n$$Qn, indexed by the topological degree $$n \in \mathbb {N}\cup \{0\}$$n∈N∪{0} of the underlying map. We also prove that an arbitrarily large equivariant perturbation of $$Q_n$$Qn leads to a globally defined solution that scatters to $$Q_n$$Qn in infinite time as long as the critical norm for the solution remains bounded on the maximal interval of existence given by the local Cauchy theory. We remark that the evolution equations are super-critical with respect to the conserved energy.
