Exact admissibility radii for the lattice topological charge of quantum spin textures

Abstract

How much can a magnetic field change before a quantum spin texture loses its skyrmion charge? For a triangulated spin-$s$ texture on $N$ quantum sites, we determine the smallest change in its local moments that makes the reconstructed topological charge ill-defined, allowing unequal error bounds and fixed boundary moments. Combined with spectral perturbation theory, this geometric threshold yields explicit magnetic-field intervals that preserve the ground-state charge, scaling as $1/N$ when the gap and geometric margin have positive limits. We apply the bounds to finite spin-$1/2$ systems with exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions. In a rigorously verified seven-spin example the charge changes at a single certified field, while the excitation gap and all local spin polarizations remain bounded away from zero; there the geometric margin vanishes linearly.
