Analytical properties are derived within the fiat-potential approximation for the flat-direction raising potential, while a numerical study is performed using the fall two-loop supersymmetric potential. We analyze the energetics of finite-size Q-walls and compare them to Q-balls, non-topological solitons possessing spherical symmetry and arising in the same supersymmetric model. This allows us to draw a phase diagram in the charge-transverse length plane, which shows a region where Q-wall solutions are energetically favored over Q-balls. However, due to their finiteness, such finite-size Q-walls are dynamically unstable and decay into Q-balls in a time which is less than their typical scale-length.展开更多

In this paper, we mainly study the global behaviors of discrete-time epidemic model in heterogenous networks. By theoretical analysis, we show that the model can be characterized by the basic reproduction number R0. When R0 is smaller than unit, the disease-free equilibrium is globally stable, while R0 is larger than unit, the unique positive equilibrium is globally attractive.展开更多
