Claims
A modified effective model reproduces the field-theory results for half-kink propagation in the inhomogeneous φ⁴ model over a relatively broad range of parameters.
The modeling choice that inhomogeneity enters solely through a position-dependent dissipation coefficient while leaving the potential and other terms unchanged, allowing a consistent modification of the effective description without new inconsistencies in the reduced dynamics.
In the non-homogeneous φ⁴ model, standard effective kink descriptions match field results well, but half-kink descriptions require a modified effective model to reproduce the full field-theory propagation speeds and profiles over a broad parameter range.
