Given a bulk scalar field with sufficient self-interactions in a higher dimensional spacetime, it is shown that the continuous symmetries in four dimensions, induced by the topological structure of the compact manifold, naturally lead to…
$Q$-stars are a class of boson stars arising in scalar-field theories with interacting potentials, minimally coupled to gravity. We show that, in certain regions of parameter space, the angular velocity of stable timelike circular geodesics…
We study numerically a class of non-topological solitons, the Q-balls, arising in supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with low-energy, gauge-mediated symmetry breaking. % Taking into account the exact form of the supersymmetric…
We study axially symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equations describing spinning gauged boson stars in a 3+1 dimensional asymptotically AdS spacetime. These smooth horizonless solutions possess an electric charge and…
We study Einstein-Yang-Mills equations in the presence of gravitating non-topological soliton field configurations, of q-ball type. We produce numerical solutions, stable with respect to gravitational collapse and to fission into free…
We consider a scalar field model with a self-interaction potential that possesses a discrete vacuum manifold. We point out that this model allows for both topological as well as non-topological solitons. In (1+1) dimensions both type of…
We study regular self-gravitating non-topological soliton solutions of the $U(1)$ gauged non-linear $O(3)$ sigma model with the usual kinetic term and a simple symmetry breaking potential in 3+1 dimensional asymptotically flat spacetime.…
Q-balls are generically present in models with softly broken low-energy supersymmetry. We discuss the properties of these non-topological solitons, which can precipitate a new kind of first-order phase transition in the early Universe and…
Complex scalars in U(1)-symmetric potentials can form stable Q-balls, non-topological solitons that correspond to spherical bound-state solutions. If the U(1) charge of the Q-ball is large enough, it can support a tower of unstable radial…
In this article, we investigate the stationary, soliton-like solutions in the model of the Einstein gravity coupled to a free and complex scalar field, and extend chains of mini-boson stars to the rotating case. These solutions manifest as…
We investigate the dynamics of Q-balls in one, two and three space dimensions, using numerical simulations of the full nonlinear equations of motion. We find that the dynamics of Q-balls is extremely complex, involving processes such as…
$\ell$-boson stars are static, spherical, multi-field self-gravitating solitons. They are asymptotically flat, finite energy solutions of Einstein's gravity minimally coupled to an odd number of massive, complex scalar fields. A previous…
We consider compact boson stars that arise for a V-shaped scalar field potential. They represent a one parameter family of solutions of the scaled Einstein-signum-Gordon equations. We analyze the physical properties of these solutions and…
We investigate spherically symmetric non topological solitons in electrodynamics with a scalar field self interaction U ~|\psi| taken from the complex signum-Gordon model. We find Q-balls for small absolute values of the total electric…
We study $Q$-ball type solitons in arbitrary spatial dimensions in the setting recently described by Kusenko, where the scalar field potential has a flat direction which rises much slower than $\phi^2$. We find that the general formula for…
Collisions of non-topological solitons, Q-balls, are studied in a typical potential in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model where supersymmetry has been broken by a gravitationally coupled hidden sector. Q-ball collisions are studied…
Spherically symmetric configurations of the non-interacting massive complex scalar field, representing non-rotating boson stars, are considered within the framework of the modified torsion based $f(T)$ gravity, with $f(T) = T + \alpha \,…
Q-balls are non-topological solitons in field theories whose stability is typically guaranteed by the existence of a global conserved charge. A classic realization is the Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin (FLS) Q-ball in a two-scalar system where a real…
Solitonic scalar field configurations are studied in a theory coupled to gravity. It is found that non-topological solitons, Q-balls, are present in the theory. Properties of gravitationally self coupled Q-balls are studied by analytical…
Scalar boson stars have attracted attention as simple models for exploring the nonlinear dynamics of a large class of ultra compact and black hole mimicking objects. Here, we study the impact of interactions in the scalar matter making up…
