We show that quantum effects can stabilize a soliton in a model with no soliton at the classical level. The model has a scalar field chirally coupled to a fermion in 1+1 dimensions. We use a formalism that allows us to calculate the exact…

Noncommutative solitons are easier to find in a noncommutative field theory. Similarly, the one-loop quantum corrections to the mass of a noncommutative soliton are easier to compute, in a real scalar theory in 2+1 dimensions. We carry out…
We consider one-loop quantum corrections to soliton energies and central charges in the supersymmetric $\phi^4$ and sine-Gordon models in 1+1 dimensions. In both models, we unambiguously calculate the correction to the energy in a simple…
We first discuss how the longstanding confusion in the literature concerning one-loop quantum corrections to 1+1 dimensional solitons has finally been resolved. Then we use 't Hooft and Veltman's dimensional regularization to compute the…
The scattering of fermions in the background field of a topological soliton of the modified $(2 + 1)$-dimensional $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$ model is studied here both analytically and numerically. Unlike the original $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$ model, the…
The bare one loop soliton quantum mass corrections can be expressed in two ways: as a sum over the zero-point energies of small oscillations around the classical configuration, or equivalently as the (Euclidean) effective action per unit…
Nontopological fermionic solitons exist across a diverse range of particle physics models and have rich cosmological implications. This study establishes a general framework for calculating fermionic soliton profiles under arbitrary scalar…

In the presence of topologically nontrivial bosonic field configurations, the fermion number operator may take on fractional eigenvalues, because of the existence of zero-energy fermion modes. The simplest examples of this occur in 1+1…
