Inspired by a recently proposed Duality and Conformal invariant modification of Maxwell theory (ModMax), we construct a one-parameter family of two-dimensional dynamical system in classical mechanics that share many features with the ModMax…
We review briefly the sphaleron and list some of its properties. We summarize some of the results in models which have an extended scalar sector. We also present our work on models dealing with physics beyond the standard model. We focus on…

Graphite is an example of a layered material that can be bent to form fullerenes which promise important applications in electronic nanodevices. The spheroidal geometry of a slightly elliptically deformed sphere was used as a possible…
Oscillons are spatially localised strong fluctuations of a scalar field. They can e.g. form after inflation when the scalar field potential is shallower than quadratic away from the minimum. Although oscillons are not protected by topology,…
We make a detailed theoretical description of the two-dimensional nature of a dc-SQUID, analyzing the coupling between its two orthogonal phase oscillation modes. While it has been shown that the mode defined as "longitudinal" can be…
A numerical study of static, spherically symmetric sphaleron solutions in the standard model coupled to the dilaton field is presented. We show that sphaleron is surrounded by strong dilaton cloud which vanishes inside the sphaleron.
Theoretical study is performed of a single-mode polariton system with linear coupling of spin components. When combined with an ordinary two-particle interaction, the spin coupling involves a spontaneous symmetry breaking accompanied by a…

We have found the complete spectrum and eigenstates for harmonic oscillations of ideal spherical and cylindrical shells, both being infinitely thin. The spectrum of the cylindrical shell has an infinite number of Goldstone modes…
Dark solitons and localized defect modes against periodic backgrounds are considered in arrays of waveguides with defocusing Kerr nonlinearity constituting a nonlinear lattice. Bright defect modes are supported by local increase of the…
Evolution of sphalerons in a class of quartic Klein-Gordon models are studied under a growing perturbation. Sphalerons are unstable lump-like solutions that arise from a saddle point between true and false vacua in the energy functional.…
Shell structure in the single particle spectrum of deformed harmonic oscillator potentials when a term proportional to $(\vec L)^2$ is added is analyzed for a large particle number. A scaling law which gives a dividing line between regular…
We study the decay of large amplitude, almost periodic breather-like states in a deformed sine-Gordon model in one spatial dimension. We discover that these objects decay in a staggered fashion via a series of transitions, during which…
Oscillons are localized, non-singular, time-dependent, spherically-symmetric solutions of nonlinear scalar field theories which, although unstable, are extremely long-lived. We show that they naturally appear during the collapse of…

We develop an analytical procedure to compute all relevant physical properties of scalar field oscillons in models with quartic polynomial potentials: energy, radius, frequency, core-amplitude, and lifetime. We compare our predictions to…
