A Bohmian approach to the perturbations of non-linear Klein-Gordon equation

In the framework of Bohmian quantum mechanics, the Klein-Gordon equation can be seen as representing a particle with mass m which is guided by a guiding wave phi(x) in a causal manner. Here a relevant question is whether Bohmian quantum mechanics is applicable to a non-linear Klein-Gordon equation? We examine this approach for phi(4)(x) and sine-Gordon potentials. It turns out that this method leads to equations for quantum states which are identical to those derived by field theoretical methods used for quantum solitons. Moreover, the quantum force exerted on the particle can be determined. This method can be used for other non-linear potentials as well.
