Abstract

We consider in this work a relativistic scalar field theory in a (1+1)(1+1)-Minkowski spacetime for a class of periodic potentials. These potentials exhibit solutions known as kinks and antikinks with topological charges, energy density, and mass dependent on the potential's parameters. We break the symmetry from a vacuum expectation value (vevvev) zero for a non-zero vevvev, which means that the supersymmetry (SUSY) has spontaneously broken.
