Exact Static Plane Symmetric Soliton-Like Solutions to the Nonlinear Interacting Electromagnetic and Scalar Field Equations in General Relativity ()
1. Introduction
The exact solutions of nonlinear differential equations to describe physical phenomena have become a scientific priority after the development of general relativity (GR) and quantum field theory (QFT). New concepts have been created for this purpose. For example, the strange attractor is linked to the notion of chaos and applied to systems with a low degree of freedom but also the notion of soliton. The soliton, considered as an exact, regular, localized energy density, finite total energy and stable solution of nonlinear differential equations is widely used in pure science [1]. In particle physics, the soliton-like solution is used to describe the complex internal configuration of elementary particles experimentally proven [2] [3] [4]. Several works related to soliton-like solutions have been done. Shikin [5] [6] has elaborated the theory of solitons in general relativity. Bronnikov et al. [7] generalized the conditions for obtaining soliton-like solutions for the interaction equation of the electromagnetic and scalar fields in the presence of the own gravitational field of elementary particles in different symmetries. They showed the existence of soliton solutions with trigonometric and polynomial nonlinearity in the static spherical symmetric metric. Rybakov et al. [8] determined exact solutions of scalar and electromagnetic field equations in the static spherical and cylindrical metric. The results of their work prove that with the calibrated invariance function
, soliton-like solutions are obtained under the condition
. Kulyabov et al. [9] established the identical solutions to those of [8] in the static plane symmetric metric with the calibrated invariance function
. Recently Adomou et al. [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] found plane symmetric solutions to the spinor and gravitational field equations in general relativity theory by using any invariants. The aim of this paper is to determine the exact static plane symmetric soliton-like solutions to nonlinear interacting electromagnetic and scalar field equations taking into account the own gravitational field of the elementary particles by using the calibrated invariance function

, while specifying the width and depths of localization of the energy density.
To answer this aim, Section 2 addresses the model and fundamental equations. In Section 3, the solutions of Einstein’s equation and of interacting nonlinear electromagnetic and scalar fields are established by taking into account the own gravitational field of the elementary particles. Section 4, gives an account of the influence of the own gravitational field of the elementary particles and the role of the nonlinearity of the fields on the obtained solutions. A conclusion follows in Section 5.
2. Model and Fundamental Equations
In general relativity, the Einstein equation has the form:

Figure 2 is a graphical representation of the energy and charge densities with the same values for parameters in Figure 1.
In Figure 2(a), the energy density is a regular, asymptotic and localized function. The increase of the nonlinearity parameter, decreases its localization width but increases its depth. It varies as follows:
In Figure 2(b), the charge density is a regular, asymptotic, localized function with high depth and low localization width as the nonlinear parameter increases. It takes the values:

Let us now consider the influence of the own gravitational field of the elementary particles and the nonlinearity of the interacting fields in Section 4.

4.1. Solutions in Flat Space-Time
In the absence of the own gravitational field of elementary particles, the metric (2) is written:
(43)
The nonlinear electromagnetic field equation takes the form:
(44)
which has the solution:

(47)
Figure 3 makes a comparative numerical study between the electric scalar potentials (33) and (46) as well as between the energy densities (37) and (47) obtained respectively in the presence and absence of the own gravitational field of elementary particles.
In Figure 3(a), without the own gravitational field of the elementary particles, the electric scalar potential is a regular function of almost equal amplitude.
In Figure 3(b), the energy density is a regular, asymptotic, localized function. Its depth is more flared and its localization width is almost equal to that obtained in the presence of the own gravitational field of the elementary particles.
The total energy of the interacting nonlinear electromagnetic and scalar fields; the charge density per unit invariant volume and the total charge of elementary particles are given by the expressions:
(48)
(49)
(50)
The results obtained in Section 4.1, prove that in the absence of the own gravitational field of the elementary particles, we obtained soliton-like solutions. This soliton-like solution confuses elementary particles with material points. It is opposed to the experimental results obtained in high energy physics. It does not allow to explain the evidence of fermions (leptons and quarks) as well as the gauge bosons and the Higgs boson of the standard model. The gravitational field of the elementary particles plays a role of interaction of the fields and should not be neglected. Let’s look at the role of the nonlinearity of the fields.

(58)
A solution of (58) is:
(59)
From the relations (3), (54), (57), (58) and (59), we find:
(60)
(61)
The energy density, the energy density per unit invariant volume and the total energy of fields verify the following expressions:
(62)
(63)
(64)
The solutions of the Einstein equation, of the electromagnetic and scalar fields are all regular with the localized energy density. The total energy of the fields diverges. These solutions are not soliton-like. The nonlinearity of the fields and the own gravitational field of elementary particles are a determining factor in the description of the complex configuration of the elementary particles.
5. Conclusion
The exact static plane symmetric soliton-like solutions for the Einstein equation and the nonlinear electromagnetic and scalar field equation taking into account the own gravitational field of elementary particles have been determined. The obtained results prove that the solutions of the Einstein equation and the nonlinear equation of the interacting electromagnetic and scalar fields are all regular. The energy density is localized. Its width and depth depend on the constant integration and the parameter of the nonlinearity. The total energy of the interacting fields is bounded and the total charge of elementary particles is finite. This model is soliton-like solution and can be used to describe the complex internal configuration of elementary particles experimentally proven. It confirms the existence of the elementary particles of the standard model in terms of non-composite particles. It is opposed to the idea of considering them as material points. When passing to the flat space-time, the total interaction energy of the nonlinear electromagnetic and scalar fields is annulled and the elementary particles are confused with material points. This model does not reflect the real configuration of elementary particles as in the previous case and cannot be used for their description. In linear case, the solutions are not soliton-like. In the following, we will examine the influence of the static symmetric spherical metric.
