We study theoretically planar interfaces between two domains of superfluid 3He-B. The structure of the B-B walls is determined on the scale of the superfluid condensation energy, and thus the domain walls have thickness on the order of the…

We study the stability of Hopfions embedded in a certain modification Ginzburg-Landau model of two equally charged condensates. It has been shown by Ward [Phys. Rev. D66, 041701(R) (2002)] that certain modification of the ordinary model…

We construct a plane symmetric, standing gravitational wave for a domain wall plus a massless scalar field. The scalar field can be associated with a fluid which has the properties of `stiff' matter, i.e. matter in which the speed of sound…

We present a projector quantum Monte Carlo study of the topological properties of the valence-bond-solid ground state in the $J$-$Q_3$ spin model on the square lattice. The winding number is a topological number counting the number of…

Topological edge states in systems of two (or more) dimensions offer scattering-free transport, exhibiting robustness to inhomogeneities and disorder. In a different domain, time-modulated systems, such as photonic time crystals (PTCs),…

We consider domain walls in nematic quantum Hall ferromagnets predicted to form in multivalley semiconductors, recently probed by scanning tunnelling microscopy experiments on Bi(111) surfaces. We show that the domain wall properties depend…

We study a Ginzburg-Landau model of structural phase transition in two dimensions, in which a single order parameter is coupled to the tetragonal and dilational strains. Such elastic coupling terms in the free energy much affect the phase…

This study investigates the occurrence of acoustic topological edge states in a 2D phononic elastic waveguide due to a phenomenon that is the acoustic analogue of the quantum valley Hall effect. We show that a topological transition takes…

We investigate domain walls between topologically ordered phases in two spatial dimensions and present a simple but general framework from which their degrees of freedom can be understood. The approach we present exploits the results on…

We consider domain walls (DW's) between single-mode and bimodal states that occur in coupled nonlinear diffusion (NLD), real Ginzburg-Landau (RGL), and complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equations with a spatially dependent coupling coefficient.…

The study of topological superconductivity is largely based on the analysis of simple mean-field models that do not conserve particle number. A major open question in the field is whether the remarkable properties of these mean-field models…

We report the existence of a new regime for domain wall motion in uniaxial and near-uniaxial ferromagnetic nanowires, characterised by applied magnetic fields sufficiently strong that one of the domains becomes unstable. There appears a new…
