A spatially-discrete sine-Gordon system with some novel features is described. There is a topological or Bogomol'nyi lower bound on the energy of a kink, and an explicit static kink which saturates this bound. There is no Peierls potential…
The aim of this work is to establish a linear instability result of stationary, kink and kink/anti-kink soliton profile solutions for the sine-Gordon equation on a metric graph with a structure represented by a $\mathcal Y$-junction. The…
