Text: "Kinks and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle." The velocity and the position of the center of a kink, soliton, or solitary wave can be known with arbitrary precision, in violation of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Thus three uncertainty conditions result: (a) the macroscopic case, where the uncertainty is trivial, (b) the linear case, where the uncertainty principle applies, and (c) the highly nonlinear case, where the uncertainty principle need not apply. Physical Review D. Particles and Fields. 19(2), Jan. 15, 1979. p. 493-495.
