We search for self-gravitating oscillating field lumps (pulsons) in the scalar model with logarithmic potential. With the use of a Krylov-Bogoliubov-type asymptotic expansion in the gravitational constant, the pulson solutions of the…

One way to understand more about spacetime singularities is to construct solutions of the Einstein equations containing singularities with prescribed properties. The heuristic ideas of the BKL picture suggest that oscillatory singularities…

We present a novel type of soliton dubbed soft oscillons. In contrast with conventional oscillons the soft counterparts come in a continuum of unboundedly large sizes. They are peculiar also in that the oscillation frequency is set by their…
