Evolution of the nonequilibrium inhomogeneities and topological defects is studied in terms of complex kink solutions of the sine-Gordon equation. The weakly damped oscillation of the sine-Gordon kink, named as the kink quasimode, is…

Synchronisation and stability under periodic oscillatory driving are well-understood, but little is known about the effects of aperiodic driving, despite its abundance in nature. Here, we consider oscillators subject to driving with slowly…

We consider the dynamics of internal envelope solitons in a two-layer rotating fluid with a linearly varying bottom. It is shown that the most probable frequency of a carrier wave which constitutes the solitary wave is the frequency where…

We present an analytical and numerical study of the Klein-Gordon kink-soliton dynamics in inhomogeneous media. In particular, we study an external field that is almost constant for the whole system but that changes its sign at the center of…

We add to a kink, which is a 1 dimensional structure, two transversal directions. We then check its asymptotic stability with respect to compactly supported perturbations in 3D and a time evolution under a Nonlinear Wave Equation (NLW). The…

We analyze a mechanism of coupling of high- and low-$K$ bands in terms of a dynamical treatment for nuclear rotations, i.e.,wobbling motion. The wobbling states are produced through the generator coordinate method after angular momentum…

Long range frequency chirping of Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal modes, whose existence is determined by the fast particles, is investigated in cases where these particles do not move freely and their motion is bounded to restricted orbits. An…

We consider a rational scalar field model in (1+1)-dimensions where the long-range character of the kinks is controllable. We show via numerical simulations that kinks with long-range tails on both sides can exhibit resonance windows. The…

We explore a {\phi}^4 model with an added external parabolic potential term. This term dramatically alters the spectral properties of the system. We identify single and multiple kink solutions and examine their stability features;…

The steady state motion of a folded pendulum has been studied using frequencies of drive that are mainly below the natural (resonance) frequency of the instrument. Although the free-decay of this mechanical oscillator appears textbook…

Many kink solutions enjoy internal excitations, called shape modes. In some 1+1d scalar models, such as the $\phi^4$ double-well model, when a kink's shape mode is excited twice it may decay to a ground state kink plus a meson. We…
