We study the nonequilibrium quench dynamics of a one-dimensional anyonic gas. We focus on the integrable anyonic Lieb-Liniger model and consider the quench from non-interacting to hard-core anyons. We study the dynamics of the local…

A model of self-driven particles similar to the Vicsek model [Phys. Rev. Lett. 75 (1995) 1226] but with metric-free interactions is studied by means of a novel Enskog-type kinetic theory. In this model, N particles of constant speed v0 try…

We consider the N=1 supersymmetric kink on a circle, i.e., on a finite interval with boundary or transition conditions which are locally invisible. For Majorana fermions, the single-particle Dirac Hamiltonian as a differential operator…

In this paper we analyze the scattering process in a two-field model in $(1+1)$-dimensions, with the special property to have several topological solutions: i) one with higher rest mass, characterized by a nested defect (lump inside a…

A general Hamiltonian wave system with quartic resonances is considered, in the standard kinetic limit of a continuum of weakly interacting dispersive waves with random phases. The evolution equation for the multimode characteristic…

We consider the scattering of kinks of the sinh-deformed $\varphi^4$ model, which is obtained from the well-known $\varphi^4$ model by means of the deformation procedure. Depending on the initial velocity $v_{in}$ of the colliding kinks,…

We study compact kinks in a modified Christ-Lee model where the potential is a non-analytic function at the minima. The model has two control parameters that determine the order of the potential and its overall shape. We consider cases in…
