Vortices in dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates have been studied theoretically and numerically for a long time, but have proved to be elusive and were experimentally observed only very recently [1]. Based on variational calculations, it was suggested [2] that vortices may also exist in dipolar droplets [3], exotic quantum states that emerge due to quantum fluctuations [4]. Here we investigate if self-bound dipolar droplets can support vortices using numerical approach based on the extended Gross-Pitaevskii equation, which includes quantum depletion and finite-size corrections. We also study dynamical stability of such vortex states for experimentally relevant values of system parameters.
