Solitary wave and soliton solutions of nonlinear equations are well known for physicists. A soliton is a solitary wave with some outstanding features which make it reasonable to be studied seriously in nonlinear systems. In fact most of the…
We develop an Hamiltonian representation of the sl(2,C) algebra on a phase space consisting of N copies of twistors, or bi-spinors. We identify a complete set of global invariants, and show that they generate a closed algebra including…
We introduce multi-soliton sets in the two-dimensional medium with the second-harmonic-generating nonlinearity subject to spatial modulation in the form of a triangle of singular peaks. Various families of symmetric and asymmetric sets are…
A reformulation of the three circles theorem of Johnson with distance coordinates to the vertices of a triangle is explicitly represented in a polynomial system and solved by symbolic computation. A similar polynomial system in distance…
The classical Smorodinsky-Winternitz systems on the ND sphere, Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces S^N, E^N and H^N are simultaneously approached starting from the Lie algebras so_k(N+1), which include a parametric dependence on the curvature…
The main aim of this paper is to introduce a new version of the Fokas-Gel'fand formula for immersion of soliton surfaces in Lie algebras. The paper contains a detailed exposition of the technique for obtaining exact forms of 2D-surfaces…
We discuss in some detail the self-similar potentials of Shabat and Spiridonov which are reflectionless and have an infinite number of bound states. We demonstrate that these self-similar potentials are in fact shape invariant potentials…
Using numerical simulations, the stability and scattering properties of the O(3) model on a two-dimensional torus are studied. Its solitons are found to be unstable but can be stabilized by the addition of a Skyrme term to the Lagrangian.…
A simplified version of Hirota's method for the computation of solitary waves and solitons of nonlinear PDEs is presented. A change of dependent variable transforms the PDE into an equation that is homogeneous of degree. Solitons are then…
We consider a class of $N=2$ supersymmetric non--unitary theories in two--dimensional Minkowski spacetime which admit classical solitonic solutions. We show how these models can be twisted into a topological sector whose energy--momentum…
In this article, we show that Fourier eigenmeasures supported on spheres with radii given by a locally finite sequence, which we call $k$-spherical measures, correspond to Fourier series exhibiting a modular-type transformation behaviour…
In the past decades, the authors made some systematic research on global and local properties of Willmore surfaces in terms of the DPW method. In this note we give a survey, mainly including the basic framework of the DPW method for the…
In theories where spacetime is a direct product of Minkowski space ($M^4$) and a d dimensional compact space ($K^d$), there can exist topological solitons that simultaneously wind around $R^3$ (or $R^2$ or $R^1$) in $M^4$ and the compact…
We view conformal surfaces in the 4--sphere as quaternionic holomorphic curves in quaternionic projective space. By constructing enveloping and osculating curves, we obtain new holomorphic curves in quaternionic projective space and thus…
The scattering of fermions in the background field of a topological soliton of the modified $(2 + 1)$-dimensional $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$ model is studied here both analytically and numerically. Unlike the original $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$ model, the…
The perturbed conformal field theories corresponding to the massive Symmetric Space sine-Gordon soliton theories are identified by calculating the central charge of the unperturbed conformal field theory and the conformal dimension of the…
We consider a class of time dependent finite energy multi-soliton solutions of the U(N) integrable chiral model in $(2+1)$ dimensions. The corresponding extended solutions of the associated linear problem have a pole with arbitrary…
We study here the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in dimension $2$ and $3$ and the modified Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in dimension $2$. Those equations admit solitons, characterized by their velocity and their shift. Given the parameters of…
We conjecture two generalisations of Elkies' theorem on unimodular quadratic forms to non-unimodular forms. We give some evidence for these conjectures including a result for determinant 3. These conjectures, when combined with results of…
Axially symmetric equilibrium configurations of the conformally invariant Willmore energy are shown to satisfy an equation that is two orders lower in derivatives of the embedding functions than the equilibrium shape equation, not one as…
