We demonstrate that for some certain values of parameters of the $(1+1)$-dimensional $varphi^8$ model, the kink solutions can be found from polynomial equations. For some selected values of the parameters we give the explicit formulas for the kinks in all topological sectors of the model. Based on the obtained algebraic equations, we show that in a special limiting case, kinks with power-law asymptotics arise in the model, describing, in particular, thick domain walls. Objects of this kind could be of interest for modern cosmology.

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 function, the ex ponential asymptotics of the corresponding kink solutions remain exponential, while the power-law ones remain power-law. However, the parameters of these asymptotics, which are related to the wall thickness, can change.

The moduli space of centred Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommmerfield 2-monopole fields is a 4-dimensional manifold M with a natural metric, and the geodesics on M correspond to slow-motion monopole dynamics. The best-known case is that of monopoles on R^3, wher e M is the Atiyah-Hitchin space. More recently, the case of monopoles periodic in one direction (monopole chains) was studied a few years ago. Our aim in this note is to investigate M for doubly-periodic fields, which may be visualized as monopole walls. We identify some of the geodesics on M as fixed-point sets of discrete symmetries, and interpret these in terms of monopole scattering and bound orbits, concentrating on novel features that arise as a consequence of the periodicity.
We study tunneling between vacua in multi-dimensional field spaces. Working in the strict thin wall approximation, we find that the conventional instantons for false vacuum decay develop a new vanishing eigenvalue in their fluctuation determinant, ar ising from decorations of the nucleating bubble wall with small spots of the additional vacua. Naively, this would suggest that the presence of additional vacua in field space leads to a substantial enhancement of the nucleation rate. However, we argue that this potential enhancement is regulated away by the finite thickness of physical bubble wall intersections. We then discuss novel saddle points of the thin wall action that, in some regimes of parameter space, have the potential to destabilize the conventional instantons for false vacuum decay.
The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model is a model of $q$ interacting fermions. Gross and Rosenhaus have proposed a generalization of the SYK model which involves fermions with different flavors. In terms of Feynman graphs, those flavors are reminiscent of the colors used in random tensor theory. This gives us the opportunity to apply some modern, yet elementary, tools developed in the context of random tensors to one particular instance of such colored SYK models. We illustrate our method by identifying all diagrams which contribute to the leading and next-to-leading orders of the 2-point and 4-point functions in the large $N$ expansion, and argue that our method can be further applied if necessary. In a second part we focus on the recently introduced Gurau-Witten tensor model and also extract the leading and next-to-leading orders of the 2-point and 4-point functions. This analysis turns out to be remarkably more involved than in the colored SYK model.
During defect-antidefect scattering, bound modes frequently disappear into the continuous spectrum before the defects themselves collide. This leads to a structural, nonperturbative change in the spectrum of small excitations. Sometimes the effect ca n be seen as a hard wall from which the defect can bounce off. We show the existence of these spectral walls and study their properties in the $phi^4$ model with BPS preserving impurity, where the spectral wall phenomenon can be isolated because the static force between the antikink and the impurity vanishes. We conclude that such spectral walls should surround all solitons possessing internal modes.
