We consider an extended model with two real scalar fields, $\phi(x,t)$ and $\chi(x,t)$. The first sector is controlled by the sine-Gordon superpotential, while the second field is submitted to the $\chi^4$ one. The fields mutually interact…
We consider a $(1+1)$-dimensional theory with a single real scalar field $\phi$ whose kinematics is modified by a generalizing function $f(\phi)$. After briefly reviewing its Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) structure, we focus on a…
We look at BPS systems involving two interacting Sine-Gordon like fields both when one of them has a kink solution and the second one either a kink or an antikink solution. The interaction between the two fields is controlled by a parameter…
We present a geometric extension of the Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) construction for scalar kinks in (1+1) dimensions embedded in static curved spacetimes. By introducing a nonminimal coupling between the scalar prepotential and the…
We study a generalized $\phi^4$ model that gives rise to BPS kink/antikink configurations with compacton-like profiles. One observes that the positive parameter controlling the generalizing function promotes an infinity degenerescence of…
In this report, the various 1D single soliton and multi-soliton solutions of the Sine-Gordon equation are explored. First the topological kink solitons and their properties for the Sine-Gordon, as well as the $\phi^{4}$ model are…
We construct a modified non-BPS sine-Gordon theory which supports stable static kinks of arbitrary topological degree $N$. We use this toy model to study problems which are interesting for higher-dimensional soliton theories supporting…
We perform a systematic study of kink solutions in two-component scalar field theories in $(1+1)$ dimensions with interaction terms of at most quartic order. Our approach is based on the Bogomolny formalism, constructing scalar potentials…
Examining the $\phi^{4}$ and $\phi^{8}$ models within a two-dimensional framework in the flat spacetime and embracing a theory with unconventional kinetic terms, one investigates the emergence of kinks/antikinks and double-kinks/antikinks.…
We investigate several models described by real scalar fields, searching for topological defects. Some models are described by a single field, and support one or two topological sectors, and others are two-field models, which support…
This work investigates kink solutions in one-dimensional scalar field theories. We begin with a review of the formalism used to obtain these solutions, presenting the BPS formalism and linear stability analysis. Next, we explore new models…
We construct models of self-interacting scalar fields whose BPS solutions exhibit kink profiles which can be continuously deformed into two-kinks by varying one of the parameters of the self-interacting potential. The effective models are…
In this paper, we present topological defects in $(1,1)$ dimensions, described by an extended nonlinear $O(3)$ sigma model. We consider spherical coordinates $(\phi,\chi)$ in the $S^2$ isotopic space and a potential $V(\phi,\chi)$. For…
Solitons are very effective in transporting energy over great distances and collisions between them can produce high energy density spots of relevance to phase transformations, energy localization and defect formation among others. It is…
We show that BPS-impurity theories may support BPS kink-kink solutions i.e., an energetically degenerated family of solutions describing two kinks at any mutual distance. This requires a singular impurity. As an example we consider the…
Following a generic approach that leads to Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) soliton solutions by imposing self-duality, we investigate three different types of non-Hermitian field theories. We consider a complex version of a logarithmic…
We study kink-antikink scattering in a one-parameter variant of the $\phi^4$ theory where the model parameter controls the static intersoliton force. We interpolate between the limit of no static force (BPS limit) and the regime where the…
We look at simple BPS systems involving more than one field. We discuss the conditions that have to be imposed on various terms in Lagrangians involving many fields to produce BPS systems and then look in more detail at the simplest of such…
The static kink, sphaleron and kink chain solutions for a single scalar field $\phi$ in one spatial dimension are reconsidered. By integration of the Euler--Lagrange equation, or through the Bogomolny argument, one finds that each of these…
This work concerns scalar field theories with topologically nontrivial vacuum manifold in rotationally symmetric backgrounds of arbitrary dimension. Lagrangians with canonical and generalized kinetic terms are considered, and a Bogomol'nyi…
