Abstract
Recently we have presented an ansatz which allows us to construct skyrmion fields from the harmonic maps of S-2 to CPN-1. In this paper we examine thi s construction in detail and use it to construct, in an explicit form, new static spherically symmetric solutions of the SU(N) Skyrme models. We also discuss some properties of these solutions. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0022- 2488(99)02612-2].
