We study the radiation in kink collision via a model that varies between $\phi^6$ theory and $\phi^2$ theory with some discontinuities. Both numerical and analytical methods were used to investigate The kink-antikink(KAK) and…

We propose a toy model to reproduce the fractal structure of kink and antikink collisions on one topological sector of $\phi^6$ theory. Using the toy model, we investigate the missing bounce windows observed in the fractal structure, and…

Interaction of asymmetric $\phi^6$ kinks with a spatially localized $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric perturbation is investigated numerically. It has been shown that when the kink (antikink) hits the defect from the gain side, a final velocity of…

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,…

The lambda-phi4 kink is linearly and topologically stable. We study how extra energy perturbations are dissipated beyond the linear regime. We found that depending on the width, amplitude and energy of a Gaussian perturbation different…

In the present work we explore the dynamics of single kinks, kink-anti-kink pairs and bound states in the prototypical fractional Klein-Gordon example of the sine-Gordon equation. In particular, we modify the order $\beta$ of the temporal…

We present an effective Lagrangian for the $\phi^4$ model that includes radiation modes as collective coordinates. The coupling between these modes to the discrete part of the spectrum, i.e., the zero mode and the shape mode, gives rise to…

We investigate soliton collisions a one-parameter family of scalar field theories in 1+1 dimensions which was first discussed by Christ and Lee. The models have a sextic potential with three local minima, and for suitably small values of…

We study the elasticity of the collision of two kinks with an incoming low speed $v\in (0,1)$ for the nonlinear wave equation in dimension $1+1$ known as the $\phi^{6}$ model. We prove for any $k\in\mathbb{N}$ that if the incoming speed $v$…

We consider a two-dimensional Lorentz-invariant field model with a $\phi^{4}$ potential modified by a term that introduces asymmetries at the manifold space. In this framework, the model recovers its original symmetry only when $p=0$. The…
