We investigate the propagation of a wave--packet in the $\phi^4$ model. We solve the time-dependent equation of motion for two distinct initial conditions: The wave-packet in a trivial vacuum background and in the background of the kink…

We study the properties of a relativistic model with logarithmic nonlinearity. We show that such model allows two types of solutions: topologically trivial (gaussons) and topologically non-trivial (kinks), depending on a sign of the…

We study the scattering of the $\varphi^8$ kinks with power-law asymptotics. We found two critical values of the initial velocity, $v_{cr}^{(1)}$ and $v_{cr}^{(2)}$, which separate different regimes of the kink-antikink collision. At the…

At leading order, there are three inelastic scattering processes beginning with a quantum kink and a fundamental meson. Meson multiplication, in which the final state is a kink and two mesons, was treated recently. In this note we treat the…
