Abstract
We present an application of the basic mathematical concept of complex functions as topological solitons, a most interesting area of research in physics. Such application of complex theory is virtually unknow outside the community of soliton researchers.
Keywords: Soliton; complex function; topology.
Resumen
Presentamos una aplicación del concepto matemático de funciones complejas como solitones topológicos, una interesante área de investigación en física. Dicha aplicación de la teoría compleja es prácticamente desconocida fuera del círculo de investigación solitónica.
Palabras clave: Solitón; función compleja; topología.
