63. In 3 He the angular momentum is fixed at the cylinder wall, fixing the boundary condition of the coreless-vortex texture. For a fixed boundary condition the system can exhibit a conserved winding number defined by an integral of the spin-vector expression similar to the topological charge density of a point defect over the surface covering the upper hemisphere.
