==O(3) non-linear sigma model==
A celebrated example, of particular interest due to its topological properties, is the ''O(3)'' nonlinear {{mvar|σ}}-model in 1 + 12 dimensions, with the Lagrangian density
:<math>\mathcal L= \tfrac{1}{2}\ \partial^\mu \hat n \cdot\partial_\mu \hat n </math>
where ''n&#770;''=(''n<sub>1</sub>, n<sub>2</sub>, n<sub>3</sub>'') with the constraint ''n&#770;''⋅''n&#770;''=1 and {{mvar|μ}}=1,2.
