Elliptic string solutions on $$\mathbb {R}\times \hbox {S}^2$$ R×S2 and their pohlmeyer reduction

Abstract We study classical string solutions on $$\mathbb {R}\times \hbox {S}^2$$ R×S2 that correspond to elliptic solutions of the sine-Gordon equation. In this work, these solutions are systematically derived by inverting the Pohlmeyer reduction. A mapping of the physical properties of the string...
