The vortex filaments are found generating or annihilating at the limit points and encountering, splitting, or merging at the bifurcation points of a complex function Z（x, t）. [t is also shown that the Hopf invariant of knotted scroll wave filaments is preserved in the branch processes （splitting, merging, or encountering） during the evolution of these knotted scroll wave filaments. Furthermore, it also revealed that the ＂exclusion principle＂ in some chemical media is just the special case of the Hopf invariant constraint, and during the branch processes the ＂exclusion principle＂ is also protected by topology.展开更多

Regular magnetic monopoles are found generating or annihilating at the limit point and encountering, splitting, or merging at the bifurcation point and the degenerate point systematically of the vector order parameter field φ（x）. Furthermore, it is also shown that when regular magnetic monopoles split or merge at the degenerate point of field function φ, the total topological charges of the regular magnetic monopoles are stilI unchanged.展开更多
