Abstract

We prove the asymptotic stability of kink for the nonlinear relativistic wave equations of the Ginzburg–Landau type in one space dimension: for any odd initial condition in a small neighborhood of the kink, the solution, asymptotically in time, is the sum of the kink and dispersive part described by the free Klein–Gordon equation. The remainder converges to zero in a global norm.
