Physics Letters B, 754, 18-25. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2016.01.0090370-2693http://hdl.handle.net/10347/16314There exists, in general, no unique definition of the size (volume, area, etc., depending on dimension) of a soliton. Here we demonstrate that the geometric volume (area etc.) of a soliton is singled out in the sense that it exactly coincides with the thermodynamical or continuum-mechanical volume. In addition, this volume may be defined uniquely for rather arbitrary solitons in arbitrary dimensionseng© 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
