Abstract

We consider a scalar field equation in dimension 1+11+1 with a positive external potential having non-degenerate isolated zeros. We construct weakly interacting pure multi-solitons, that is solutions converging exponentially in time to a superposition of Lorentz-transformed kinks, in the case of distinct velocities. We find that these solutions form a 2K2K-dimensional smooth manifold in the space of solutions, where KK is the number of the kinks. We prove that this manifold is invariant under the transformations corresponding to the invariances of the equation, that is space-time translations and Lorentz boosts.
