In magnetic materials, nontrivial spin textures may emerge owing to the competition among different types of magnetic interactions. In particular, chiral magnetic solitons, represent topologically protected spin configuration with particle-like properties, that are ideally suited to perform logical operations. Based on atomistic spin dynamics simulations, we propose to make use of magnetic solitons in a functional and dynamic three-input majority gate, in which the input states can be controlled by applying an external electromagnetic field or spin-polarized currents. One of the main advantages of the proposed device is that the input and output signals are encoded in the chirality of solitons, allowing to perform logical operations. As examples we illustrate how the proposed device can be used to perform logical relations such as Boolean AND and OR.
