The point is not whether you call it a soliton or a topological defect. It's whether the paper's proposal is about a soliton or topological defect "in the gravitational field equations" or in a scalar field model. I&#x27

No, the (hypothetical) topological defects mentioned in Section 7 of the article are configurations of (hypothetical) scalar fields (like the Higgs field, but with different equations of motion): https://en.wikipedia.org/wik
