Transport phenomena in skyrmionic textures have recently gained attention owing to possible applications in spintronics and in cognitive computing. While the reservoir computing aspect of skyrmions relies heavily on their nonlinear response properties, little is known about the real-space distribution of the current density that reflects the non-trivial structure of the local conductivity tensor of these complex objects. Here we report on the development of a method that provides the local current distribution for arbitrary spin textures under bias, and apply that method to study the current distribution of isolated skyrmions. We address the importance of diagonal and Hall components of the conductivity tensor for the current distribution and discuss possible relevance of our findings to reservoir computing applications.
