We establish the asymptotic stability of the sine-Gordon kink under odd perturbations that are sufficiently small in a weighted Sobolev norm. Our approach is perturbative and does not rely on the complete integrability of the sine-Gordon…
We study the sine-square deformed quantum XY chain with open boundary conditions, in which the interaction strength at the position $x$ in the chain of length $L$ is proportional to the function $f_x = \sin^2 [\pi/L (x-1/2)]$. The model can…
