We analyse the scattering of sine-Gordon breathers on a square potential well. We show that the scattering process depends not only on the vibration frequency of the breather and its incoming speed but also on its phase as well as the depth…
For a class of nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations, we prove that in the small energy limit, any sequence of breathers decomposes into a finite sum of decoupled, periodically modulated canonical solitons. Each of these solitons is…
In the present paper, a theorem, which determines the linear stability of multibreathers in Klein-Gordon chains, is proven. Specifically, it is shown that for soft nonlinearities, and positive inter-site coupling, only structures with…
The classical sine-Gordon model permits integrable discontinuities, or jump-defects, where the conditions relating the fields on either side of a defect are Backlund transformations frozen at the defect location. The purpose of this article…
We provide a systematic analysis of a prototypical nonlinear oscillator system respecting PT-symmetry i.e., one of them has gain and the other an equal and opposite amount of loss. Starting from the linear limit of the system, we extend…

Classical sine-Gordon theory on a strip with integrable boundary conditions is considered analyzing the static (ground state) solutions, their existence, energy and stability under small perturbations. The classical analogue of Bethe-Yang…
We introduce a system based on dual-core nonlinear waveguides with the balanced gain and loss acting separately in the cores. The system features a "supersymmetry" when the gain and loss are equal to the inter-core coupling. This system…
Breathers are nontrivial time-periodic and spatially localized solutions of nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations (PDEs). Families of breathers have been found for certain integrable PDEs but are believed to be rare in…
A previously conjectured set of exact form factors of boundary exponential operators in the sinh-Gordon model is tested against numerical results from boundary truncated conformal space approach in boundary sine-Gordon theory, related by…
We study some properties of the deformed Sine Gordon models. These models, presented by Bazeia et al, are natural generalisations of the Sine Gordon models in (1+1) dimensions. There are two classes of them, each dependent on a parameter n.…
In this note we prove that the sine-Gordon breather is the only quasimonochromatic breather in the context of nonlinear wave equations in $\mathbb{R}^N$.
We explore the dynamics of strongly localized periodic solutions (discrete solitons, or discrete breathers) in a finite one-dimensional chain of asymmetric vibro-impact oscillators. The model involves a parabolic on-site potential with…
The paper addresses compact oscillatory states (compact breathers) in translationally-invariant lattices with flat dispersion bands. The compact breathers appear in such systems even in the linear approximation. If the interactions are…
We consider the Hamiltonian version of a $\cal PT$-symmetric lattice that describes dynamics of coupled pendula under a resonant periodic force. Using the asymptotic limit of a weak coupling between the pendula, we prove the nonlinear…
In the limit of small couplings in the nearest neighbor interaction, and small total energy, we apply the resonant normal form result of a previous paper of ours to a finite but arbitrarily large mixed Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Klein-Gordon chain,…
In the present work we consider the introduction of PT-symmetric terms in the context of classical Klein-Gordon field theories. We explore the implication of such terms on the spectral stability of coherent structures, namely kinks. We find…
We consider the interactions of traveling localized wave solutions with a vertex in a star graph domain that describes multiple Josephson junctions with a common/branch point (i.e., tricrystal junctions). The system is modeled by the…
We study the thermal equilibrium of nonlinear Klein-Gordon chains at the limit of small coupling (anticontinuum limit). We show that the persistence distribution associated to the local energy density is a useful tool to study the…
We consider the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation $\partial_t^2u(x,t)-\partial_x^2u(x,t)+\alpha u(x,t)=\pm|u(x,t)|^{p-1}u(x,t)$ on a periodic metric graph (necklace graph) for $p>1$ with Kirchhoff conditions at the vertices. Under suitable…
