Multicomponent Skyrmion lattices and their excitations

We study quantum Hall ferromagnets with a finite density of topologically charged spin textures in the presence of internal degrees of freedom such as spin, valley, or layer indices, so that the system is parametrized by a d -component spinor field. In the absence of anisotropies we find a hexagonal...
