Phys. Rev. D 67, 065012 (2003) [4 pages]Domain wall latticesReceived 24 October 2002; published 26 March 2003 We construct lattices with alternating kinks and antikinks. The lattice is shown to be stable in certain models. We consider the forces between kinks and antikinks and find that the lattice dynamics is that of a Toda lattice. Such lattices are exotic metastable states in which the system can get trapped during a phase transition. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
