We study a new family of models of the sine-Gordon type, starting from the sine-Gordon model, including the double sine-Gordon, the triple one, and so on. The models appears as deformations of the starting model, with the deformation…

We present a new theoretical framework for describing an impurity in a trapped Bose system in one spatial dimension. The theory handles any external confinement, arbitrary mass ratios, and a weak interaction may be included between the Bose…

We investigate a mechanical system consisting of infinite number of harmonically coupled pendulums which can impact on two rigid rods. Because of gravitational force the system has two degenerate ground states. The related topological kink…

In the present work we construct kink solutions for different (parabolic and wave) variants of the fractional $\phi^4$ model, in both the sub-Laplacian and super-Laplacian setting. We establish existence and monotonicity results (for the…

We study the BPS states of $U(N)_k\times U(1)_{-k}$ vector Chern-Simons theory on a sphere at weak coupling $\lambda=\frac{N}{k}\ll 1$, dual to an AdS$_4$ higher spin gravity. Higher spin currents are well known to be anomalous at…

We introduce and study a simplification of the symmetric single-impurity Kondo model. In the Ising-Kondo model, host electrons scatter off a single magnetic impurity at the origin whose spin orientation is dynamically conserved. This…

Exact BPS solutions of multi-walls are obtained in five-dimensional supergravity. The solutions contain 2n parameters similarly to the moduli space of the corresponding global SUSY models and have a smooth limit of vanishing gravitational…

We prove the BPS decomposition theorem (a.k.a. cohomological integrality theorem) decomposing the cohomology of smooth symmetric stacks into the Weyl-invariant part of the cohomological Hall induction of the intersection cohomology of good…

In the present Chapter, we consider two prototypical Klein-Gordon models: the integrable sine-Gordon equation and the non-integrable $\phi^4$ model. We focus, in particular, on two of their prototypical solutions, namely the kink-like…

The transition from integrable to non-integrable highly-dispersive nonlinear models is investigated. The sine-Gordon and $\phi^4$-equations with the additional fourth-order spatial and spatio-temporal derivatives, describing the higher…

We study the classical thermodynamics of the double sinh-Gordon (DSHG) theory in 1+1 dimensions. This model theory has a double well potential, thus allowing for the existence of kinks and antikinks. Though it is nonintegrable, the DSHG…

The properties of gravitational kinks are studied within some simple models of two dimensional gravity. In spacetimes of cylindrical topology we prove the existence of kinks of constant curvature with arbitrary kink numbers. In $R^1\times…

It was recently proposed that there exist stable supersymmetric phases for finite temperature superstings. This issue was investigated using an effective supergravity which takes into account massive winding modes. Such a theory admits BPS…

AdS supergravity admits supersymmetric solutions that describe BPS defects. Here, we investigate such solutions in AdS$_3$ supergravity, which is formulated as a Chern-Simons theory on $\mathrm{OSp}(2|1)\,\times\, \mathrm{OSp}(2|1)$. We…

When the gravitational Chern-Simons term is reduced from 3 to 2 dimensions, the lower dimensional theory supports a symmetry breaking solution and an associated kink. Kinks in general relativity bear a close relation to flat space kinks,…
