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…
We present a dynamical picture of kink-anti-kink scattering in a pair of special, Frankensteinian potentials made of piece-wise quadratic and linear pieces. Specifically, we focus on models that support kinks without skin and core regions.…
In this work we investigate the presence of scalar field models supporting kink solutions with logarithmic tails, which we call super long-range structures. We first consider models with a single real scalar field and associate the…
The general static solutions of the scalar field equation for the potential $V(\phi)= -1/2 M^2\phi^2 + \lambda/4 \phi^4$ are determined for a finite domain in $(1+1)$ dimensional space-time. A family of real solutions is described in terms…
We investigate the propagation of fronts in an inhomogeneous medium within the framework of the $\phi^4$ model. The inhomogeneity is modeled either as an interface separating regions with different dissipation or as a finite layer with…
The two major effects observed in collisions of the continuum $\phi^4$ kinks are (i) the existence of critical collision velocity above which the kinks always emerge from the collision and (ii) the existence of the escape windows for…
In this paper we consider two models of soliton dynamics (the sine Gordon and the \phi^4 equations) on a 1-dimensional lattice. We are interested in particular in the behavior of their kink-like solutions inside the Peierls- Nabarro barrier…
This paper examines the effects of a thin layer of inhomogeneity on periodic solutions of the Multiple-sine-Gordon (MsG) model. We investigate the dynamics of the perturbed Double-sine-Gordon (DsG) system as a significant and more practical…

In this paper, we work on the pure and mixed cluster models with periodic boundary condition. The first purpose is to establish the concept of quantum cluster kink. We clarify that there are two types of cluster kinks since there are two…
Covariant, self-interacting scalar quantum field theories admit solutions for low enough spacetime dimensions, but when additional divergences appear in higher dimensions, the traditional approach leads to results, such as triviality, that…
A Rayleigh-Schrodinger type of perturbation scheme is employed to study weak self-interacting scalar potential perturbations occurring in scalar field models describing 1D domain kinks and 3D domain walls. The solutions for the unperturbed…
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…
One-loop corrections to kink masses in a family of (1+1)-dimensional field theoretical models with two real scalar fields are computed. A generalized DHN formula applicable to potentials with and without reflection is obtained. It is shown…
In this paper, we investigate novel kinklike structures in a scalar field theory driven by Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) dynamics. Analytical features are reached through a first-order formalism and a deformation procedure. The analysis ensures…
We consider the creation of kink-antikink pairs of a scalar field $\phi$ by the scattering of classical wavepackets of a second scalar field, $\psi$, when there are no direct interactions between $\phi$ and $\psi$. The creation becomes…
