Linearly stable and unstable complex soliton solutions with real energies in the Bullough-Dodd model

We investigate different types of complex soliton solutions with regard to their stability against linear perturbations. In the Bullough-Dodd scalar field theory we find linearly stable complex PT-symmetric solutions and linearly unstable solutions for which the PT-symmetry is broken. Both types of...
