A kink-based expression for the canonical partition function is developed using Feynman's path integral formulation of quantum mechanics and a discrete basis set. The approach is exact for a complete set of states. The method is tested on…
The peridynamic model of a solid does not involve spatial gradients of the displacement field and is therefore well suited for studying defect propagation. Here, bond-based peridynamic theory is used to study the equilibrium and steady…
We propose a discrete lattice version of the Fokker-Planck kinetic equation along lines similar to the Lattice-Boltzmann scheme. Our work extends an earlier one-dimensional formulation to arbitrary spatial dimension $D$. A generalized…
We consider a scalar Hamiltonian nonlinear wave equation formulated on networks; this is a non standard problem because these domains are not locally homeomorphic to any subset of the Euclidean space. More precisely, we assume each edge to…
We study topological solitary waves (kinks and antikinks) in a nonlinear one-dimensional Klein-Gordon chain with the on-site potential of a double-Morse type. This chain is used to describe the collective proton dynamics in…
It is shown how a integrable mechanical system provides all the localized static solutions of a deformation of the linear O(N)-sigma model in two space-time dimensions. The proof is based on the Hamilton-Jacobi separability of the…
In this work, we consider a two-dimensional (2D) dilaton gravity model where the dilaton kinetic term $\mathcal{X}$ is modified by an additional derivative coupling term $\alpha\mathcal{X}^2$. In the case with a canonical scalar matter…
We study the collision of a kink and an antikink in the double sine-Gordon model with and without the excited vibrational mode. In the latter case, we find that there is a limited range of the parameters where the resonance windows exist,…
Self-gravitating kink solutions of a two-dimensional dilaton gravity are revisited in this work. Analytical kink solutions are derived from a concise superpotential formalism of the dynamical equations. A general analysis on the linear…
We develop the recent proposal to use dimensional reduction from the four-dimensional space-time D=(1+3) to the variant with a smaller number of space dimensions D=(1+d), d < 3, at sufficiently small distances to construct a renormalizable…
We consider the (1+1)-dimensional Lorentz-symmetric field-theoretic model with logarithmic potential having a Mexican-hat form with two local minima similar to that of the quartic Higgs potential in conventional electroweak theory with…
We find three exact solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation in 1-1 dimensional space-time for different time dependent potentials. In two cases we consider a time dependent scalar potential and in one case a time dependent electric…
Given a kink bearing Hamiltonian, Isospectral Hamiltonian approach is used in generating new sets of Hamiltonains which also admit kink solutions. We use Sine-Gordon model as a example and explicitly work out the new sets of potentials and…
We construct and study two kink theories. One contains a static 2-kink configuration with controllable binding energy. The other contains a locally stable non-topological solution, which we call a lavion. The new models are 1D analogs of…
We study the 1D Klein-Gordon equation with variable coefficient nonlinearity. This problem exhibits an interesting resonant interaction between the spatial frequencies of the nonlinear coefficients and the temporal oscillations of the…
In this work, we present a numerical method to consistently approximate solutions of a spatially discrete, double sine-Gordon chain which considers the presence of external damping. In addition to the finite-difference scheme employed to…
We provide two new classes of moment models for linear kinetic equations in slab and three-dimensional geometry. They are based on classical finite elements and low-order discontinuous-Galerkin approximations on the unit sphere. We…
We investigate the effect of the breaking of integrability in the integrals of motion of a sine-Gordon-like system. The class of quasi-integrable models, discussed in the literature, inherits some of the integrable properties they are…
We study effects of Kac-Baker long-range dispersive interaction (LRI) between particles on kink properties in the discrete sine-Gordon model. We show that the kink width increases indefinitely as the range of LRI grows only in the case of…
It was recently proposed a novel discretization for nonlinear Klein-Gordon field theories in which the resulting lattice preserves the topological (Bogomol'nyi) lower bound on the kink energy and, as a consequence, has no Peierls-Nabarro…
