Based on Duan’s topological current theory,we show that in a ferromagnetic spin-triplet superconductor there is a topological defect of string structures which can be interpreted as vortex lines.Such defects are different from the Abrikosov vortices in one-component condensate systems.We investigate the inner topological structure of the vortex lines.The topological charge density,velocity,and topological current of the vortex lines can all be expressed in terms of δ function,which indicates that the vortices can only arise from the zero points of an order parameter field.The topological charges of vortex lines are quantized in terms of the Hopf indices and Brouwer degrees of-mapping.The divergence of the self-induced magnetic field can be rigorously determined by the corresponding order parameter fields and its expression also takes the form of a δ-like function.Finally,based on the implicit function theorem and the Taylor expansion,we conduct detailed studies on the bifurcation of vortex topological current and find different directions of the bifurcation.
