Introducing new physically motivated ans\"{a}tze, we explore both analytically and numerically the classical and absolute stabilities of a single $Q$-ball in an arbitrary number of spatial dimensions $D$, working in both the thin and thick…
We start by discussing the classical noncommutative (NC) Q-ball solutions near the commutative limit, then generalize the virial relation. Next we quantize the NC Q-ball canonically. At very small theta quantum correction to the energy of…

Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of Q-balls with baryon and lepton numbers. Stable Q-balls can form at the end of inflation from the fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate and can exist as dark…
Scalars carrying a conserved global charge $Q$ can form stable localized field configurations composed of a large number of particles. These non-topological solitons are spherically symmetric and are called Q-balls. While usually analyzed…
We consider Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin Q-balls in a (3+1)-dimensional model with vanishing scalar potential of one of the fields. The Q-ball is stabilized by the gradient energy of this field and carries scalar charge, over and beyond the global…
Lattice coverings in the real plane by Minkowski balls are studied. We exploit the duality of admissible lattices of Minkowski balls and inscribed convex symmetric hexagons of these balls. An explicit moduli space of the areas of these…
Q-balls are non-topological solitons that arise in theories with a complex scalar field possessing a conserved global U(1) charge. Their stability is ensured by this charge, making them potentially significant in cosmology. In this paper,…

Theories with low-energy supersymmetry predict the existence of stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls, that can contribute to dark matter. We discuss the experimental signatures, methods of detection, and the present limits on such dark…
The Affleck-Dine mechanism, which is one of the most attractive candidates for the baryogenesis in supersymmetric theories, often predicts the existence of baryonic Q balls in the early universe. In this scenario, there is a possibility to…

We study the energy-momentum tensor of stable, meta-stable and unstable Q-balls in scalar field theories with U(1) symmetry. We calculate properties such as charge, mass, mean square radii and the constant d1 ("D-term") as functions of the…
Higher-order WKB methods are used to investigate the border between the solvable and insolvable portions of the spectrum of quasi-exactly solvable quantum-mechanical potentials. The analysis reveals scaling and factorization properties that…

The high-energy tail of the distribution of solute-solvent interaction energies is poorly characterized for condensed systems, but this tail region is of principal interest in determining the excess free energy of the solute. We introduce…
The fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate is studied by utilizing 3+1 dimensional numerical simulations. The 3+1 dimensional simulations confirm that the fragmentation process is very similar to the results obtained by 2+1…
