Quantum mechanics ordinarily describes particles as being pointlike, in the sense that the uncertainty $\Delta x$ can, in principle, be made arbitrarily small. It has been shown that suitable correction terms to the canonical commutation…

Knots are familiar entities that appear at a captivating nexus of art, technology, mathematics, and science. As topologically stable objects within field theories, they have been speculatively proposed as explanations for diverse persistent…

Our analysis suggests strongly that stationary pulses exist in nonlinear media with second-, third-, and fourth-order dispersion. A theory, based on the variational approach, is developed for finding approximate parameters of such solitons.…
