Orbit based procedure for doublets of scalar fields and the emergence of triple kinks and other defects

In this work we offer an approach to enlarge the number of exactly solvable models with two real scalar fields in (1+1)D. We build some new two-field models, and obtain their exact orbits and exact or numerical field configurations. It is noteworthy that a model presenting triple-kinks and double-flat-top lumps is among those new models

Derived Subgroups of Fixed Points in Profinite Groups

The main result of this paper is the following theorem. Let q be a prime, A an elementary abelian group of order q^3. Suppose that A acts as a coprime group of automorphisms on a profinite group G in such a manner that C_G(a)' is periodic for each nontrivial element a in A. Then G' is locally finite.Comment: To appear in Glasgow Mathematical Journal (2011). 11 page

A note on the infrared behavior of the compactified Ginzburg--Landau model in a magnetic field

We consider the Euclidean large-$N$ Ginzburg--Landau model in $D$ dimensions, $d$ ($d\leq D$) of them being compactified. For D=3, the system can be supposed to describe, in the cases of d=1, d=2, and d=3, respectively, a superconducting material in the form of a film, of an infinitely long wire having a rectangular cross-section and of a brick-shaped grain. We investigate the fixed-point structure of the model, in the presence of an external magnetic field. An infrared-stable fixed points is found, which is independent of the number of compactified dimensions. This generalizes previous work for type-II superconducting filmsComment: LATEX, 6 pages no figures. arXiv admin note: 80% of text overlaps with arXiv:1102.139

Analytical Multi-kinks in smooth potentials

In this work we present an approach which can be systematically used to construct nonlinear systems possessing analytical multi-kink profile configurations. In contrast with previous approaches to the problem, we are able to do it by using field potentials which are considerably smoother than the ones of Doubly Quadratic family of potentials. This is done without losing the capacity of writing exact analytical solutions. The resulting field configurations can be applied to the study of problems from condensed matter to brane world scenarios
