We study the properties of walls of marginal stability for BPS decays in a class of N=2 theories. These theories arise in N=2 string compactifications obtained as freely acting orbifolds of N=4 theories, such theories include the STU model…

Generalized Wess-Zumino models which admit topologically non-trivial BPS saturated configurations along one compact, spatial dimension are investigated in various dimensions of space-time. We show that, in a representative model and for…

We investigate the properties of domain walls arising from non-Abelian discrete symmetries, which we refer to as non-Abelian domain walls. We focus on $S_4$, one of the most commonly used groups in lepton flavour mixing models. The…

We study BPS domain walls in four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ massive SQCD with gauge group $SU(N)$ and $F<N$ flavors. We propose a class of three-dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theories to describe the effective dynamics on the walls. Our…

We construct lattices with alternating kinks and anti-kinks. The lattice is shown to be stable in certain models. We consider the forces between kinks and antikinks and find that the lattice dynamics is that of a Toda lattice. Such lattices…

Domain walls can be formed in superconductors with a discrete degeneracy of the ground state, for instance, due to the breaking of time reversal symmetry. We study all cases where the formation of domain walls is possible in a tetragonal…

The Geometry of planar domain walls is studied. It is argued that the planar walls indeed have plane symmetry. In the Minkowski coordinates the walls are mapped into revolution paraboloids.

We show that all kinds of biasing of cosmological phase transitions produce qualitatively new type of domain wall networks. The biased networks consist of compact, finite size, bag-like wall structures and exhibit a generic instability. The…

In this paper we address several aspects of flat Bogomolnyi-Prasad-Sommerfeld (BPS) domain walls together with their Lorentz invariant vacua of 4d N=1 supergravity coupled to a chiral multiplet. The scalar field spans a one-parameter family…

We analyse the distributional thin wall limit of self gravitating scalar field configurations representing thick domain wall geometries. We show that thick wall solutions can be generated by appropiate scaling of the thin wall ones, and…

BPS domain wall solutions of gauged supergravities are found, including those theories which have non-compact gauge groups. These include models that have both an unstable de Sitter solution and stable domain wall solutions.

We review main features of the pure $\mathcal N=1$, $D=4$ SYM and its effective description by the Veneziano-Yankielowicz generalized sigma-model. We then indicate that the construction of BPS domain walls interpolating between different…

Domain walls of a discrete model of an anisotropic ferromagnet are studied. They can be described by sequences of two reversible mappings. Competition between the length scale of spatial structures and the lattice constant leads to a rich…

Coupled triple well (phi6) one-dimensional potentials occur in both condensed matter physics and field theory. Here we provide a set of exact periodic solutions in terms of elliptic functions (domain wall arrays) and obtain single domain…

We examine the decoupling properties of the N=2 SQCD vacua when the adjoint mass term is turned on and then the N=1 limit is taken. The BPS domain wall tension in N=1 MQCD and SQCD is also examined. The correspondence of the MQCD integrals…
