Soliton dynamics in nonlinear planar systems

The work in this thesis is concerned with the study of stability and scattering of solitons in planar models ie where spacetime is (2+l)-dimensional. We consider both integrable models, where exact solutions can be written in closed form, and non-integrable models, where approximations and numerical...
