Herein we shall argue for the utility of "spacetime geodesy", a point of view where one delays as long as possible worrying about dynamical equations, in favour of the maximal utilization of both symmetries and geometrical features. This…

We investigate the validity of collective coordinate approaximations to the scattering of solitons in several classes of models in (1+1) dimensional field theory models. We look at models which are deformations of the sine-Gordon (SG) or…
