pure virtual

Calculate an initial guess for the bubble profile.

The calculated profiles should be evaluated at the requested number of points, n_grid_points , between the minimum and maximum radial coordinate values, domain_start and domain_end , respectively. If a negative value is given for either of these, appropriate values are to be guessed based on the given potential and vacuum location.

Note

The false vacuum is assumed to be at the origin in field space.

Parameters

potential	the potential for which the profiles are to be computed
true_vacuum	the location of the true vacuum in field space
n_dimensions	the number of space-time dimensions
domain_start	the minimum value of the radial coordinate at which the profiles are evaluated. If negative, the function should guess an appropriate value.
domain_end	the maximum value of the radial coordinate at which the profiles are evaluated. If negative, the function should guess an appropriate value.
initial_step_size	the initial step size to be used in constructing the discretized solution
interpolation_points_fraction	fraction of grid points to use for interpolation

Returns

an initial guess for the field profiles

Implemented in BubbleProfiler::Instream_profile_guesser, BubbleProfiler::Kink_profile_guesser, and BubbleProfiler::Shooting_profile_guesser.
