Abstract

This dissertation investigates a particular deformation of the Bullough-Dodd model. It\'s unknown if such deformations are integrable or not, yet they present solitonic solutions which were obtained through numerical simulations. We further explore the concept of quasi-integrability in this context, showing analiticaly that at least for some sets of parameters, the charges are quasi-conserved (i.e. the charges vary over time, but it\'s initial and final values are the same). Even when the analitical argument can\'t predict what happens, our simulations show the same charge behaviour. This suggests that those deformations are integrable and can be further explored. (AU)
