Kink Collision in the Noncanonical $φ^{6}$ Model: A Model with Localized Inner Structures

We study collisions of kinks in the one-space and one-time dimensional noncanonical nonintegrable scalar $ϕ^{6}$ model. We examine the energy density of the kink, and we find that, as a function of the parameters that control the curvature of the potential, a localized inner structure of the energy density emerges. We also examine the kink excitation spectrum and the dynamics of the kink collisions for a wide range of initial velocities. We find that apart from the resonance windows, the production of two to three oscillons occurs for some values of the principal parameters of the model.

Scattering of Kinks in Noncanonical sine-Gordon Model

In this paper, we numerically study the scattering of kinks in the noncanonical sine-Gordon model using Fourier spectral methods. The model depends on two free parameters, which control the localized inner structure in the energy density and the characteristics of the scattering potential. It has been conjectured that the kink solutions in the noncanonical model possess inner structures in their energy density, and the presence of these yields bound states and resonance structures for some relative velocities between the kink and the antikink. In the numerical study, we observed that the classical kink mass decreases monotonically as the free parameters vary, and yields bion-formations and long-lived oscillations in the scattering of the kink-antikink system.

Vacuum Polarization Energy of the Kinks in the Sinh-Deformed Models

We compute the one-loop quantum corrections to the kink energies of the sinh-deformed $ϕ^{4}$ and $φ^{6}$ models in one space and one time dimensions. These models are constructed from the well-known polynomial $ϕ^{4}$ and $φ^{6}$ models by a deformation procedure. We also compute the vacuum polarization energy to the non-polynomial function $U(ϕ)=\frac{1}{4}(1-\sinh^{2}ϕ)^{2}$. This potential approaches the $ϕ^{4}$ model in the limit of small values of the scalar function. These energies are extracted from scattering data for fluctuations about the kink solutions. We show that for certain topological sectors with non-equivalent vacua the kink solutions of the sinh-deformed models are destabilized.

A Caputo based SIRS and SIS fractional order models with standard incidence rate and varying population

In the present work, we have introduced and studied two epidemic models that are constructed with Caputo fractional derivative. We considered standard incidence rate and varying population dynamics for SIS and SIRS mathematical models. Model equilibria, basic reproduction numbers are determined and local stability analysis are established for the two fractional dynamical models. Finally, the efficient fracPECE iterative scheme for fractional order deterministic dynamical models is applied to perform numerical simulations.
