We give a new proof for the existence of rotationally symmetric steady and expanding gradient Ricci solitons in dimension $n+1$, $2\le n\le 4$, with metric $g=\frac{da^2}{h(a^2)}+a^2d\,\sigma$ for some function $h$ where $d\sigma$ is the…
We derive spherically symmetric solutions of the classical \lambda-R model, a minimal, anisotropic modification of general relativity with a preferred foliation and two local degrees of freedom. Starting from a 3 + 1 decomposition of the…
We show that quantum effects can stabilize a soliton in a model with no soliton at the classical level. The model has a scalar field chirally coupled to a fermion in 1+1 dimensions. We use a formalism that allows us to calculate the exact…
There is a theorem known as a Virial theorem that restricts the possible existence of non-trivial static solitary waves with scalar fields in a flat space-time with 3 or more spatial dimensions. This raises the following question: Does the…
The most general Dirac Hamiltonians in $(1+1)$ dimensions are revisited under the requirement to exhibit a supersymmetric structure. It is found that supersymmetry allows either for a scalar or a pseudo-scalar potential. Their spectral…
