The Dirac-Born-Infeld action with transverse scalar fields is considered to study the dynamics of various BPS states. We first describe the characteristic properties of the so-called 1/2 and 1/4 BPS states on the D3 brane, which can be…
We analyze the dynamics of a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) field in a cosmological set-up which includes a perfect fluid. Introducing convenient dynamical variables, we show the evolution equations form an autonomous system when the potential and…
We investigate the BPS configuration of the multi D-vortices produced from the D2${\bar {\rm D}}$2 system. Based on the DBI-type action with a Gaussian-type runaway potential for a complex tachyon field, the BPS limit is achieved when the…
Born-Infeld theory admits finite energy point particle solutions with $\delta$-function sources, BIons. I discuss their role in the theory of Dirichlet $p$-branes as the ends of strings intersecting the brane when the effects of gravity are…
We study N=2 supersymmetric Born-Infeld-Higgs theory in 3 dimensions and derive Bogomol'nyi relations in its bosonic sector. A peculiar coupling between the Higgs and the gauge field (with dynamics determined by the Born-Infeld action) is…
We have shown the existence of self-dual solutions in new Maxwell-Higgs scenarios where the gauge field possesses a $k$-generalized dynamic, i.e., the kinetic term of gauge field is a highly nonlinear function of $F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}$. We…
In this paper, we consider two types of topological solitons in a generalized Born-Infeld-Higgs model. We explore the self-dual structure of the model and prove the existence of planar vortex solutions. Furthermore, we couple the system…
We investigate the existence of compact self-dual solitons in the restricted gauged baby Skyrme model in the presence of an external magnetic field. The consistent implementation of the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) formalism depends…
We describe curved-space BPS dyon solutions, the ADM mass of which saturates the gravitational version of the Bogomol'nyi bound. This generalizes self-gravitating BPS monopole solutions of Gibbons et al. when there is no dilaton.
We investigate a generalized gauged $\mathds{C}\mathrm{P}^1$-Maxwell theory in which the electromagnetic sector acquires a field-dependent magnetic permeability generated dynamically through fermionic vacuum polarization. Starting from the…
Using the concept of strong necessary conditions (CSNC), we derive Bogomolny equations and BPS bounds for two modifications of the gauged baby BPS Skyrme model: the nonminimal coupling to the gauge field and k-deformed model. In particular,…
It is shown how the the introduction of a suitably defined dilatonic auxiliary field, $\Phi$ say, makes it possible for the non-linear Lagrangian for a generic elastic string model, of the kind appropriate for representing superconducting…

It is well-known that the exact solution of non-linear $\sigma$ model coupled to gravity can be perceived as an exterior gravitational field of a global monopole. Here we study Einstein's equations coupled to a non-linear $\sigma$ model…
We study the variation of the effective fine structure constant alpha for Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) type dark energy models. The DBI action based on string theory naturally gives rise to a coupling between gauge fields and a scalar field…
In a recent paper, we studied the scalar fields of the five dimensional N=2 hypermultiplets using the method of symplectic covariance. For static spherically symmetric backgrounds, we showed that exactly two possibilities exist and detailed…
