Dynamics of sine-Gordon kinks in the presence of rapidly varying periodic perturbations of different physical origins is described analytically and numerically. The analytical approach is based on asymptotic expansions, and it allows to…
We study the $\lambda\phi^4_{1+1}$ kink solion and the zero-mode contribution to the Kink soliton mass in regions beyond the semiclassical regime. The calculations are done in the non-trivial scaling region and where appropriate the results…
We study the diffusion and deformation of classical solitons coupled to thermal noise. The diffusion coefficient for kinks in the $\phi^4$ theory is predicted up to the second order in $kT$. The prediction is verified by numerical…
Loops of magnetic field in the corona are observed to oscillate and these oscillations have been posited to be the superposition of resonant kink waves. To date, most analyses of these oscillations have concentrated on calculating the…
The sine-Gordon model is studied with model parameters that depend on both space and time. An effective model with one degree of freedom is constructed, allowing the description of the kink movement in both a temporally non-autonomous and…
We give a sufficient condition, in the spirit of Kowalczyk-Martel-Munoz-Van Den Bosch \cite{KMMvdB21AnnPDE}, for the local asymptotic stability of kinks under odd perturbations. In particular, we allow the existence of quite general…
In this work we study the orbital stability/instability in the energy space of a specific family of periodic wave solutions of the general $\phi^{4n}$-model for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$. This family of periodic solutions are orbiting around the…
In this paper, we present topological defects in $(1,1)$ dimensions, described by an extended nonlinear $O(3)$ sigma model. We consider spherical coordinates $(\phi,\chi)$ in the $S^2$ isotopic space and a potential $V(\phi,\chi)$. For…
We study collisions of kinks in the one-space and one-time dimensional noncanonical nonintegrable scalar $\phi^{6}$ model. We examine the energy density of the kink, and we find that, as a function of the parameters that control the…
Recent studies have emphasized the important role that a shape deformability of scalar-field models pertaining to the same class with the standard $\phi^4$ field, can play in controlling the production of a specific type of breathing bound…
In this paper, we introduce a commensurable and non-degenerate double sine-Gordon model, in which a partial breaking of vacuum degeneracy provides a mechanism for the emergence of static multi-kinks. These multi-kinks $K_n$ are stable field…
We study a stiff quasi-periodic orbit of the electromagnetic two-body problem of Dirac's electrodynamics of point charges. We expand the delay equations of motion about circular orbits to obtain the variational equations up to nonlinear…
Recently a linearized perturbation theory has been formulated for soliton sectors of quantum field theories. While it is more economical than alternative formalisms, such as collective coordinates, it is currently limited to solitons which…
As a low-energy effective model emerging in disparate fields throughout all of physics, the ubiquitous $\varphi^4$-theory is one of the central models of modern theoretical physics. Its topological defects, or kinks, describe stable,…
Kink dynamics in the underdamped and strongly discrete sine-Gordon lattice that is driven by the oscillating force is studied. The investigation is focused mostly on the properties of the mode-locked states in the {\it overband} case, when…
Decayless kink oscillations of solar coronal loops are studied in terms of a low-dimensional model based on a randomly driven Rayleigh oscillator with coefficients experiencing random fluctuations. The model considers kink oscillations as…
Many solitonic configurations in field theory have localized bound states in their spectrum of linear perturbations. This opens up the possibility of having long lived excitations of these solitons that could affect their dynamics. We start…
There has been considerable interest in magnetoacoustic waves in static, straight, field-aligned, one-dimensional equilibria where the exteriors of a magnetic slab are different between the two sides. We focus on trapped, transverse…
We prove the asymptotic stability of the moving kinks for the nonlinear relativistic wave equations in one space dimension with a Ginzburg-Landau potential: starting in a small neighborhood of the kink, the solution, asymptotically in time,…
A chain of interacting particles subject also to a nonlinear on-site potential admits stable soliton-like configurations : static kinks. The linear normal-modes around such a kink contain a discrete set of localized, gap-separated modes.…
