"Solitons emerge in various non-linear systems as stable localized configurations behaving in many ways like particles, from non-linear optics and condensed matter to nuclear physics to cosmology and supersymmetric theories"--

Abstract:
An introduction to integrable and non-integrable scalar field models, with topological and non-topological soliton solutions. Focusing on both topological and non-topological solitons, this book  Read more...
