A Rayleigh-Schr\"{o}dinger type of perturbation scheme is employed to study weakly interacting kinks and domain walls formed from two different real scalar fields $\chi$ and $\varphi$. An interaction potential $% V_{1}(\chi,\varphi)$ is…

We provide a combinatorial model for spin surfaces. Given a triangulation of an oriented surface, a spin structure is encoded by assigning to each triangle a preferred edge, and to each edge an orientation and a sign, subject to certain…

The coupling between the states of a system and the continuum into which it is embedded, induces correlations that are especially large in the short time scale. These correlations cannot be calculated by using a statistical or…
We perform the study of perturbative aspects of a three-dimensional supersymmetric Maxwell-Chern-Simons-Proca theory minimally coupled to scalar superfields. Using the superfield formalism, we derive the propagators for both gauge and…

We employ various quantum-mechanical approaches for studying the impact of electric fields on both nonretarded and retarded noncovalent interactions between atoms or molecules. To this end, we apply perturbative and non-perturbative methods…
When phonons couple to fermions in 2D semimetals, the interaction may turn the system into an insulator. There are several insulating phases in which the time reversal and the sublattice symmetries are spontaneously broken. Examples are…
This work is devoted to design and study efficient and accurate numerical schemes to approximate a chemo-attraction model with consumption effects, which is a nonlinear parabolic system for two variables; the cell density and the…
