The signum-Gordon model in 1+1 dimensions possesses the exact shockwave solution with discontinuity of the field at the light cone and infinite gradient energy. The energy of a regular part of the wave inside the light cone is finite and it grows linearly with time. The initial data for such waves contain a field configuration which is null in the space and has time derivative proportional to the Dirac delta. We study regularized initial data that lead to shock-like waves with finite gradient energy. We found that such waves exist in the finite time intervals and finally they decay and produce a cascade of oscillon-like structures. A pattern of the decay is very similar to the one observed in process of scattering of compact oscillons.

We study various aspects of the scattering of generalized compact oscillons in the signum-Gordon model in (1+1) dimensions. Using covariance of the model we construct traveling oscillons and study their interactions and the dependence of these intera
ctions on the oscillons initial velocities and their relative phases. The scattering processes transform the two incoming oscillons into two outgoing ones and lead to the generation of extra oscillons which appear in the form of jet-like cascades. Such cascades vanish for some values of free parameters and the scattering processes, even though our model is non-integrable, resemble typical scattering processes normally observed for integrable or quase-integrable models. Occasionally, in the intermediate stage of the process, we have seen the emission of shock waves and we have noticed that, in general, outgoing oscillons have been more involved in their emission than the initial ones i.e. they have a border in form of curved world-lines. The results of our studies of the scattering of oscillons suggest that the radiation of the signum-Gordon model has a fractal-like nature.
Oscillons are extremely long-lived, spatially-localized field configurations in real-valued scalar field theories that slowly lose energy via radiation of scalar waves. Before their eventual demise, oscillons can pass through (one or more) exceptiona
lly stable field configurations where their decay rate is highly suppressed. We provide an improved calculation of the non-trivial behavior of the decay rates, and lifetimes of oscillons. In particular, our calculation correctly captures the existence (or absence) of the exceptionally long-lived states for large amplitude oscillons in a broad class of potentials, including non-polynomial potentials that flatten at large field values. The key underlying reason for the improved (by many orders of magnitude in some cases) calculation is the systematic inclusion of a spacetime-dependent effective mass term in the equation describing the radiation emitted by oscillons (in addition to a source term). Our results for the exceptionally stable configurations, decay rates, and lifetime of large amplitude oscillons (in some cases $gtrsim 10^8$ oscillations) in such flattened potentials might be relevant for cosmological applications.
We present explicit solutions of the signum-Gordon scalar field equation which have finite energy and are periodic in time. Such oscillons have a strictly finite size. They do not emit radiation.
We study the decay of large amplitude, almost periodic breather-like states in a deformed sine-Gordon model in one spatial dimension. We discover that these objects decay in a staggered fashion via a series of transitions, during which higher harmoni
cs are released as short, staccato bursts of radiation. Further, we argue that this phenomenon is not restricted to one particular model, and that similar mechanisms of radiative decay of long-lived oscillating states can be observed for a wide class of physical systems, including the $phi^6$ model.
Oscillons are long-lived, slowly radiating solutions of nonlinear classical relativistic field theories. Recently it was discovered that in one spatial dimension their decay may proceed in staccato bursts. Here we perform a systematic numerical study
to demonstrate that although this behaviour is not confined to one spatial dimension, it quickly becomes unobservable when the dimension of space is increased. To complete the picture we also present explicit results on the dimension dependence of the collapse instability observed for three-dimensional oscillons.
