abstract

In this paper we construct a one-parametric family of (1+1)-dimensional one-component scalar field theory models supporting kinks. Inspired by the sine-Gordon and $\phi^4$ models, we look at all possible extensions such that the kink second-order fluctuation operators are Schr\"odinger differential operators with P\"oschl-Teller potential wells. In this situation, the associated spectral problem is solvable and therefore we shall succeed in analyzing the kink stability completely and in computing the one-loop quantum correction to the kink mass exactly. When the parameter is a natural number, the family becomes the hierarchy for which the potential wells are reflectionless, the two first levels of the hierarchy being the sine-Gordon and $\phi^4$ models.

  1. Quantum Lifts of Noninteger Power Law Field Theories

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    β-shifted normal ordering yields quantum lifts for noninteger power-law potentials with α>2, and tames the divergent Stokes amplitude in the σ=4 Pöschl-Teller model into an O(g^{3/4}) scaling.

  2. Confining kinks. $\zeta$-regularized one-loop kink mass shifts in exotic field theories

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New soliton models ('confining kinks') have purely discrete perturbation spectra; their one-loop mass shifts, computed via zeta-function regularization, are finite and negative without vacuum subtractions.
