We investigate a class of scalar field models which engender kink-like solutions in the presence of polynomial potentials that allows for modifications of the tails of the localized configurations. We introduce a parameter in the potential…
Graphene kinks are topological states of buckled graphene membranes. We show that when a moving kink encounters a constriction, there are three general classes of behavior: reflection, trapping, and transmission. Overall, constriction is…
We calculate the one-loop correction to the distribution of energy-momentum tensor around a kink in $1+1$ dimensional $\phi^4$ model. We employ the collective coordinate method to eliminate the zero mode that gives rise to infrared…
Over the last few decades power law distributions have been suggested as forming generative mechanisms in a variety of disparate fields, such as, astrophysics, criminology and database curation. However, fitting these heavy tailed…
In Class. Quantum Grav. 26 (2009) 175006 (arXiv:0812.4333v3) Bizon et al discuss the power-law tail in the long-time evolution of a spherically symmetric self-gravitating massless scalar field in odd spatial dimensions. They derive explicit…
We study excitation spectra of BPS-saturated topological solutions -- the kinks -- of the $\varphi^8$ scalar field model in $(1+1)$ dimensions, for three different choices of the model parameters. We demonstrate that some of these kinks…
The extinction transition in the presence of a localized quenched defect is studied numerically. When the bulk is at criticality, the correlation length diverges and even an infinite system cannot "decouple" from the defect. The results…

We study the dynamics of $\phi^4$ kinks perturbed by an ac force, both with and without damping. We address this issue by using a collective coordinate theory, which allows us to reduce the problem to the dynamics of the kink center and…
In this paper, we explored a class of potentials with three minima that support kink solutions exhibiting one long-range tail. We analyzed antikink-kink interactions using an effective Lagrangian based on collective coordinates and compared…
We consider a real scalar field equation in dimension 1+1 with an even, positive self-interaction potential having two non-degenerate zeros (vacua) 1 and -1. Such a model admits non-trivial static solutions called kinks and antikinks. We…
The sigma model with dilaton and axion is generalized by including in it a potential that is invariant under the global transformation of the dilaton shift. In the (1 + 1)-dimensional case, a soliton is constructed, which turned out to be…
We study the forward-backward asymmetries in the decays of $K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+ \ell^-$ ($\ell=e$ and $\mu$) in the presence of scalar or tensor terms. We find that with the scalar (tensor) type interaction the asymmetry can be up to ${\cal…
Two hyperbolic-deformed field theoretic models are discussed. In both of them, due to the effect of specific deformation function on the well known $\varphi^4$ and $\varphi^6$ models, their internal structure may change significantly.…
