In this thesis, we first review the linearized soliton perturbation theory developed in recent years, which is particularly simple in the one-kink sector. Using it, the amplitude and probability of kink-meson inelastic scattering can be…
In classical field theory, radiation does not reflect off of reflectionless kinks. In quantum field theory, radiation quanta, called mesons, can be reflected. We provide a general analytical formula for the leading order amplitude and…
We study final states in the scattering of kinks and antikinks of the $\varphi^8$ field-theoretic model. We use the initial conditions in the form of two, three or four static or moving kinks. In the numerical experiments we observe a…
We study a model described by a single real scalar field in the two-dimensional space-time. The model is specified by a potential which is non-polynomial and supports analytical kink-like solutions that are similar to the standard kink-like…
The deformed model $\tilde{\varphi}^{(6)}$ is introduced based on the $\varphi^4$ model using a deformation functional $F[\varphi]$ including a free parameter $a$. The kink solutions in different sectors and their internal modes are…
In this work, we will use inverse scattering transform to study the semi-discrete Gardner equation under two types of non-vanishing boundary conditions, and investigate two interesting nonlinear waves in the presence of discrete spectrum,…
In this study, based on the $\varphi^4$ model, a new model (called the $B\varphi^4$ model) is introduced in which the potential form for the values of the field whose magnitudes are greater than $1$ is multiplied by the positive number $B$.…
We study compact kinks in a modified Christ-Lee model where the potential is a non-analytic function at the minima. The model has two control parameters that determine the order of the potential and its overall shape. We consider cases in…
We consider the scattering of kinks of the sinh-deformed $\varphi^4$ model, which is obtained from the well-known $\varphi^4$ model by means of the deformation procedure. Depending on the initial velocity $v_{in}$ of the colliding kinks,…
The scattering of kinks and low-frequency breathers of the nonlinear sine-Gordon (SG) equation on a spatially localized $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric perturbation (defect) with a balanced gain and loss is investigated numerically. It is…
Vortex-antivortex pairs in 2D easy-plane ferromagnets have characteristics of solitons in two dimensions. We investigate numerically and analytically the dynamics of such vortex pairs. In particular we simulate numerically the head-on…
Wave-packet scattering from a stationary potential is significantly modified when the wave-packet is subject to an external time-dependent force during the interaction. In the semiclassical limit, wave--packet motion is simply described by…
This paper concerns classical nonlinear scalar field models on the real line. If the potential is a symmetric double-well, such a model admits static solutions called kinks and antikinks, which are perhaps the simplest examples of…
In this work, we investigate the dynamics of a scalar field in the nonintegrable $\displaystyle \phi ^{4}$ model, restricted to the half-line. Here we consider singular solutions that interpolate the Dirichlet boundary condition…
We borrow the form of potential of the well-known kink-bearing $\varphi^4$ system in the range between its two vacua and paste it repeatedly into the other ranges to introduce the periodic $\varphi^4$ system. The paper is devoted to…
In this paper we study the scattering of solitons in a binary Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) including SO- and Rabi-couplings. To this end, we derive a reduced ODE model in view to provide a variational description of the collisional…
We study various properties of topological solitons (kinks) of a field-theoretic model with a polynomial potential of the twelfth degree. This model is remarkable in that it has several topological sectors, in which kinks have different…
In a two-dimensional toy model, motivated from five-dimensional heterotic M-theory, we study the collision of scalar field kinks with boundaries. By numerical simulation of the full two-dimensional theory, we find that the kink is always…
The fractal velocity pattern in symmetric kink-antikink collisions in $\phi^4$ theory is shown to emerge from a dynamical model with two effective moduli, the kink-antikink separation and the internal shape mode amplitude. The shape mode…
The cross section for scattering of x-rays by solitons is calculated. The authors consider solitons corresponding to the formation of a kink in a system of adatoms on the surface of a substrate, or of a crowdion in a chain of atoms in a…
