Abstract
We suggest a quantum stabilization method for theSU(2) σ-model, based on the constant-cutoff limit of the cutoff quantization method developed by Balakrishnaet al., which avoids the difficulties with the usual soliton boundary conditions pointed out by Iwasaki and Ohyama. We investigate the baryon numberB=1 sector of the model and show that after the collective coordinate quantization it admits a stable soliton solution which depends on a single dimensional arbitrary constant. Using the constant-cutoff approach, we then study theSU(2) soliton Hamiltonian, which does not contain the electric seagull terms, and show that if the fields are restricted to the collective subspace, the electric seagull terms are induced in the effective Hamiltonian similarly to the case of the complete Skyrme model. These terms are consistent with gauge invariance and leading-term predictions of the chiral perturbation calculation of the electric polarizability.
