The geometric models of N=4 supersymmetric mechanics with $(2d.2d)_{\DC}$-dimensional phase space are proposed, which can be viewed as one-dimensional counterparts of two-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric sigma-models by Alvarez-Gaum\'e and…
We obtain full moduli parameters for generic non-planar BPS networks of domain walls in an extended Abelian-Higgs model with $N$ complex scalar fields, and exhaust all exact solutions in the corresponding $\mathbb{C}P^{N -1}$ model. We…
Many models for dynamical supersymmetry breaking have the domain wall solution of the Kovner-Shifman type and therefore contain the potential cosmological domain wall problem.We show that the degeneracy of the vacua is lifted in any model…
We reconsider a cosmological evolution of domain walls produced by spontaneous breaking of an approxime discrete symmetry. We show, that domain walls may never collapse even if the standard bound on the vacuum energy asymmetry is satisfied.…
Supersymmetric CPN models based on underlying bosonic Kahler manifolds have not been thought to arise directly from constrained linear ones. A counterexample for N=4 is presented using improved understanding of membranes in superstring…

We study a (1+1)-dimensional field theory based on $(\psi \ln \psi)^2$ potential. There are three degenerate minima at $\psi = 0$ and $\psi=\pm1$. There are novel, asymmetric kink solutions of the form $\psi = \mp\exp (-\exp(\pm x))$…
Discrete R symmetries are interesting from a variety of points of view. They raise the specter, however, of domain walls, which may be cosmologically problematic. In this note, we describe some of the issues. In many schemes for…
We investigate the phase space symmetries and conserved charges of homogeneous gravitational minisuperspaces. These (0+1)-dimensional reductions of general relativity are defined by spacetime metrics in which the dynamical variables depend…
We explore a variant of the $\phi^6$ model originally proposed in Phys.\ Rev.\ D {\bf 12}, 1606 (1975) as a prototypical, so-called, "bag" model in which domain walls play the role of quarks within hadrons. We examine the steady state of…
We review main features of the pure $\mathcal N=1$, $D=4$ SYM and its effective description by the Veneziano-Yankielowicz generalized sigma-model. We then indicate that the construction of BPS domain walls interpolating between different…
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…
In this paper we constructed a semi-realistic cosmological model in a dynamic domain wall framework. Our universe is considered to be a (3+1) dimensional dynamic domain wall in a higher dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Born-Infeld background.…
In the construction of a classical smoothed out brane world model in five dimensions, one uses a dynamically generated domain wall (a kink) to localise an effective four dimensional theory. At the level of the Euler-Lagrange equations the…
An exact solution of non-BPS multi-walls is found in supersymmetric massive T^\star(\mathbb{CP}^1) model in five dimensions. The non-BPS multi-wall solution is found to have no tachyon. Although it is only metastable under large…
For a compact spinc manifold $X$ with boundary $b_1(\partial X)=0$, we consider moduli spaces of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations in a generalized double Coulomb slice in $L^2_1$ (i.e., $W^{1,2}$) Sobolev regularity. We prove they…
