Q-balls are non-topological solitonic solutions to a wide class of field theories that possess global symmetries. Here we show that in these same theories there also exists a tower of novel composite Q-ball solutions where, within one…
In this paper the existence of analytical solutions describing $Q$-balls in a family of deformed $O(4)$ sigma models in (1+1) dimensions has been investigated. These models involve two complex scalar fields whose coupling breaks the $O(4)$…
The smallest classically stable Q-balls are, in fact, generically metastable: in quantum theory they decay into free particles via collective tunneling. We derive general semiclassical method to calculate the rate of this process in the…
We explore equilibrium solutions of non-topological solitons in a general class of scalar field theories which include global U(1) symmetry. We find new types of solutions, tube-shaped and crust-shaped objects, and investigate their…

Theories with low-energy supersymmetry predict the existence of stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls, that can contribute to dark matter. We discuss the experimental signatures, methods of detection, and the present limits on such dark…
We study the classical and absolute stability of Q-balls in scalar field theories with flat potentials arising in both gravity-mediated and gauge-mediated models. We show that the associated Q-matter formed in gravity-mediated potentials…
We show that inflation can occur in the core of a Q-ball.
We investigate phase transitions due to excited Q-balls. As excited Q-balls have angular momentum, a magnetic field can be generated if one considers gauged Q-balls. Based on the course of the phase transition we estimate the strength of…
In this paper we present exactly solved extended quintessence models; furthermore, through a dynamical effective Q-cosmological "constant", we recover some of the L decaying cases found in the literature. Finally we introduce a sort of…
One of the most direct predictions of QCD is the existence of color-singlet states called Glueballs, which emerge as a consequence of the gluon field self-interactions. Despite the outstanding success of QCD as a theory of the strong…
We study Q-balls associated with local U(1) symmetries. Such Q-balls are expected to become unstable for large values of their charge because of the repulsion mediated by the gauge force. We consider the possibility that the repulsion is…
We discuss Q-balls in the complex signum-Gordon model in d-dimensional space for d=1,2,3. The Q-balls have strictly finite radius. Their total energy is a power-like function of the conserved U(1) charge with the exponent equal to…
