Localized structures in three-field models: Geometrically constrained configurations and the first-order framework

Abstract

This work deals with models described by three real scalar fields in one spatial dimension. We study the case where two of the three fields engender kinematical modifications, which respond as geometrical constrictions, that can be used to change the center and/or the tails of the kinklike configurations. An important advantage of our procedure is the construction of a method for the obtention of first-order differential equations that solve the equations of motion and give rise to stable localized structures. We illustrate the general procedure investigating several distinct examples, and suggesting some possibilities of applications of practical use, in particular, to the case of domain walls and skyrmions in magnetic material, collisions of kinks and to deal with braneworld scenarios having a warped five-dimensional anti de Sitter geometry, with a single extra dimension of infinite extent.
