We study an example of higher-order field-theoretic model with an eighth-degree polynomial potential -- the $\varphi^8$ model. We show that for some certain ratios of constants of the potential, the problem of finding kink-type solutions in…
We consider the change in the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the type of flat domain walls (i.e., kink solutions) in field-theoretic models with a real scalar field. We show that when the model is deformed by a bounded deforming…
We consider a family of field-theoretic models with a real scalar field in (1+1)-dimensional space-time. The field dynamics in each model is determined by a polynomial potential with two degenerate minima. We obtain exact general formulas…
The asymptotic properties of the stability potentials of kinks with power-law tails are discussed. In particular, in cosmology such kinks can describe "thick" domain walls. The discrete part of the domain wall excitation spectrum, the…
Many solitonic configurations in field theory have localized bound states in their spectrum of linear perturbations. This opens up the possibility of having long lived excitations of these solitons that could affect their dynamics. We start…
Domain wall - type solution with oscillating thickness in a real, scalar field model is investigated with the help of a polynomial approximation. We propose a simple extension of the polynomial approximation method. In this approach we…
We study interactions of kinks and antikinks of the $(1+1)$-dimensional $\varphi^8$ model. In this model, there are kinks with mixed tail asymptotics: power-law behavior at one infinity versus exponential decay towards the other. We show…
The Two Higgs Doublet Model predicts the emergence of 3 distinct domain wall solutions arising from the breaking of 3 accidental global symmetries, $Z_2$, CP1 and CP2, at the electroweak scale for specific choices of the model parameters.…
In this letter, we show how to build bridges between field-theoretic models that have kink solutions with different asymptotic behavior. We study transformational properties of kinks in models with a real scalar field in two-dimensional…
We consider the Grand Unified SU(5) model with a small or vanishing cubic term in the adjoint scalar field in the potential. This gives the model an approximate or exact Z$_2$ symmetry whose breaking leads to domain walls. The simplest…
We study the scattering of the $\varphi^8$ kinks off each other, namely, we consider those $\varphi^8$ kinks that have power-law asymptotics. The slow power-law fall-off leads to a long-range interaction between the kink and the antikink.…
We consider domain walls obtained by embedding the 1+1-dimensional $\phi^4$-kink in higher dimensions. We show that a suitably adapted dimensional regularization method avoids the intricacies found in other regularization schemes in both…
Higher-order scalar field models in two dimensions, including the $\phi^8$ model, have been researched. It has been shown that for some special cases of the minima positions of the potential, the explicit kink solutions can be found.…
This work deals with the presence of topological defects in k-field models, where the dynamics is generalized to include higher order power in the kinetic term. We investigate kinks in (1,1) dimensions and vortices in (2,1) dimensions,…
We study a (1+1)-dimensional field theory based on $(\psi \ln \psi)^2$ potential. There are three degenerate minima at $\psi = 0$ and $\psi=\pm1$. There are novel, asymmetric kink solutions of the form $\psi = \mp\exp (-\exp(\pm x))$…
Examining the $\phi^{4}$ and $\phi^{8}$ models within a two-dimensional framework in the flat spacetime and embracing a theory with unconventional kinetic terms, one investigates the emergence of kinks/antikinks and double-kinks/antikinks.…
Coupled asymmetric double well ($a\phi^2-b\phi^3+c\phi^4$) one-dimensional potentials arise in the context of first order phase transitions both in condensed matter physics and field theory. Here we provide an exhaustive set of exact…
We consider a planar gravitating thick domain wall of the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory as a spacetime with finite thickness glued to two vacuum spacetimes on each side of it. Darmois junction conditions written on the boundaries of the thick…
We present a mathematical framework for generating thick domain wall solutions to the coupled Einstein-scalar field equations which are (locally) plane symmetric. This approach leads naturally to two broad classes of wall-like solutions.…
We study collisions of kinks in the one-space and one-time dimensional noncanonical nonintegrable scalar $\phi^{6}$ model. We examine the energy density of the kink, and we find that, as a function of the parameters that control the…
