In this paper we analyze the existence of solitary waves for these theories. We assume that the lower order term W is positive and we prove the existence of solitary waves if the coupling between matter and electromagnetic field is small. We point out that the positiveness assumption on W implies that the energy is positive: this fact makes these theories more suitable to model physical phenomena.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-11-21T11:56:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35J50", "81T13" ], "keywords": [ "solitary waves", "electromagnetic field", "abelian gauge theories consist", "lower order term", "model physical phenomena" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 768356, "adsabs": "2007arXiv0711.3356B" } } }
