Stable Kink-Kink and Metastable Kink-Antikink Solutions

We construct and study two kink theories. One contains a static 2-kink configuration with controllable binding energy. The other contains a locally stable non-topological solution, which we call a lavíon. The new models are 1D analogs of non-integrable systems in higher dimensions, such as the Skyrm...

description We construct and study two kink theories. One contains a static 2-kink configuration with controllable binding energy. The other contains a locally stable non-topological solution, which we call a lavíon. The new models are 1D analogs of non-integrable systems in higher dimensions, such as the Skyrme model and realistic vortex systems. To help construct the theories, we derive a simple expression for the interaction energy between two kinks.
